Find solutions
LET'S PLAY:

GET READY: Ask your friends to share a couple of problems that they are facing. The problems can be related to homework, tests, co-curricular activities, friendships or any other aspect of school life.

GET SET: In Column A below, list any three of the problems.
A. Problems B. Fault finders C. Solution seekers
1.
2.
3.

GO! In Column B, give examples of responses that blame others and make excuses for oneself.

In Column C, give examples of responses that focus on solving the problems and making things better.

THINK ABOUT IT. In your opinion, why do people get caught up in blaming others instead of looking for ways to solve problems?
