Check understanding
- Use 'assertive' correctly and distinguish it from 'aggressive' — e.g. 'Being assertive means saying what I need calmly'
- Explain what 'conflict resolution' means and describe one strategy such as using 'I feel...' statements
- Use words like 'negotiate', 'boundary', and 'respect' accurately in a discussion about friendships
“If your child and a friend have a disagreement, can they describe it using words like 'conflict' or 'compromise' — and explain how assertive communication is different from aggressive or passive behaviour?”
