Communication Styles – Passive/Assertive/Aggressive

Communication Styles – Passive/Assertive/Aggressive
, Not Grade Specific,

Communication Styles introduces the idea that how people speak to one another matters. The lesson distinguishes passive, assertive, and aggressive approaches, then asks learners to represent all three styles in comics built around the same friendship scenario. Holding the situation constant makes differences in language, tone, boundaries, and likely outcomes easier to compare. The activity supports discussion of respectful self-expression without claiming that one isolated response defines a person’s character.

Writing to Recount Template

Writing to Recount Template
, Not Grade Specific,

The template begins by helping writers establish when an experience occurred, using several optional sentence starts. Separate prompts gather the location, participants, and main actions before learners arrange events in time order. A bank of connectives supports movement from the first event through later actions and the conclusion. The final prompt asks what happened at the end, giving the recount a defined stopping point rather than leaving it as an unsequenced list.
