- Often our go to solution for conflict is to get one child to apologise to another. While we use to have a health conversation in the peace room at times often it would just be one child saying sorry and the other saying sorry back. - We've noticed children don't really mean the apology a lot of times and mutter one plate puri under their breath after the sorry. - For some conflicts, especially if we want to address bullying, it's important to bring a peaceful resolution and have a conversation and have the children reflect on why something happened. ---- “In KiVa, you don’t need to say sorry unless you want to,” said Paula Havu. “Because, usually, when you are told to say sorry you don’t necessarily mean it. . . . In KiVa, you try to focus on where the problem is and how you behaved and how you could have behaved differently.” Usually, a follow-up meeting is scheduled with these two parties, two weeks into the future, when the conflict is revisited. - Timothy Walker in [[Teach Like Finland]]
