There are two Talking With TJ curriculums – Conflict Resolution and Teamwork. Each curriculum comes with lesson plans, video, and student handouts.
Conflict Resolution
The conflict resolution series teaches students to work out their problems without fighting. TJ the DJ talked about managing anger, respecting different points of view, and using friendly words rather than fighting words to communicate feelings and ideas – all ways of finding win-win solutions to everyday problems.
Teamwork
The program is a series of 15-minute video stories and activities that help youth work and play together. Students learn the importance of cooperation to solve group problems as well as in competitive situations through the use of entertaining stories and characters. The three main focuses in this curriculum are making group plans, appreciating differences and including people, and playing as a cooperative team in competitive situations.
