Do
- Draw a picture of a problem that you have had.
- Share your picture with your Lodge or team. Tell the others about what happened.
- When others share their pictures, share how you feel about the problems that they have drawn.
- You can use post-it notes to write down how you felt, or the other feelings that people had about your drawing. Attach these post-its to the drawings.

Take it Further
Learn about the five steps to conflict resolution (1. Calm down, 2. Talk about the situation, 3. Think of some ways to fix the problem (solutions), 4. Agree to a solution, 5. Put the solution into action). Create posters with the steps of conflict resolution and put them up around your meeting area as a reminder for everyone! Try Rock, Paper, Conflict.
