Conflict Resolution – Real Life Example
Exhibits responsible personal and social behavior that respects self and others in physical activity settings.
Explain a conflict that you were a part of.
How did you solve the conflict so the solution was agreeable for both parties? (Win-Win)
In physical education, sometimes you have to work with people that you wouldn’t otherwise choose to work with. Learning to work with these people is an
example of how conflict resolution in class can benefit you in real life. For example, you may not get to choose your coworkers on a job, but will still be expected
to work with them.
Relate another example of conflict resolution from class to real life and explain how they are comparable.
