For the past couple weeks we have been working on different types of communication. We have focused on different types of communication, (passive, aggressive, passive-aggressive and assertive), passive is a 'You win I lose' situation ( Agreeing to everything, just saying 'OK', giving in, blaming yourself, people pleasing), Aggressive is a 'I win you lose' situation ( Yelling, putting the blame on the other person, giving orders,), Passive-aggressive ' You lose, I lose' (Dismissing or shutting down, giving backhanded complements) and assertive ( being respectful, admitting to your mistakes). we were told to create a role-play based on one of 3 situations on the slide based on how we would deal with the situation, here is my finished work.
Base (existing text)
Monique’s parents expect her to come home directly from school each day. But today, Jamila wants Monique to come to her house for a little “get together” after school. Some of the other kids are coming over and Jamila’s mother won’t be home. Monique doesn’t want to go because she knows her parents will be really angry if she goes and she isn’t sure it is safe without any adults there. Jamila doesn’t want to take “no” for an answer because Monique is her best friend.
*Monique and Jamila are walking home going their usual route when they come across where they normally part ways , they go to say goodbye and Jamila saids *
“Do you want to come to my place, I'm having a get together with some friends, my parents arent home so it will be fun”
Jamila said
“I don’t think I should go, i’m meant to go straight home”
Monique said cautiously
“Oh come on Monique, It won't hurt, just for 10 minutes”
Jamila said encouragingly
“I’m not comfortable with being at someone's house without my their parents home”
Monique said standing up straight with her head up high
“Don't be such a downer, it won't hurt you, just say you went to a homework club today”
Jamilla said
“Well if I don’t really want to go because my parents will worry about me. I don’t really like keeping secrets or lying to them.”
Monique exclaimed in a honest tone
“WelL I dONt reAlLy WAnt To gO, mY paRenTS wIll be WorRieD”
Jamilla said trying to mock Monique
“Please don’t be so rude. You wouldn’t like it if I did it to you would it?”
Monique said in a miserable tone
“I wouldn’t care, it's not like words hurt anyway,”
Jamila said now getting frustrated
“Well atleast I have emotional feelings unlike you.”
Monique said in a slightly discouraged voice
“UHHH, fine”
Jamila stamped her feet
“I'll go hang out with my other friends, the cool ones!”
Jamila stormed off.
Monique sighed in relief and began to walk home with a slight smile on her face.
