I interviewed for a social studies teaching position yesterday, today they called and told me I need to come in and teach a class tomorrow. Unfortunately the class is not on History, Geoegraphy or American Government. It’s on Conflict management. Are there any teachers out there that could suggest good websites or other resources for a lecture on conflict management for high school freshmen. I’d like to include an activity or two that would encourage class participation. Any help is appreaciated.
