GO FISH – CAST AWAY CONFLICT
Based on the popular card game, Go Fish, this game helps youngsters improve social and emotional skills in relation to conflict resolution. Players will learn the skills needed to resolve conflict in an assertive and nonviolent way and how to avoid conflict. Teach players how to overcome conflict calmly and thoughtfully can lead to healthier and happier relationships. Help players understand when intervention by an adult is needed. Scenario cards present brief but detailed conflict situations that players are asked to resolve calmly and effectively.
By practising strategies such as apologising, compromising, and listening, players learn to adopt behaviours that can enhance their relationships at home, at school, and within the community.There are two decks of 50 cards; one for each grade level. The game differs from classic go fish in that players must answer a question before they can accept a requested card. Instead of numbers on the cards they all have fun fish names and pictures. Rules sheet and facilitator guidelines included.
This game provides players with the skills needed to manage conflict in an appropriate and socially acceptable way
