Play & Pretend: SP: 3. Assertive, Submissive, Aggressive - Story

This lesson aims to teach children how to be assertive when their needs are high, submissive when their needs are low, and aggressive only when they are in real danger. Many children are overly submissive and deny their own needs for fear of confrontation. Others tend to pick a fight about every small thing. And others resort to aggressive behaviour when assertive problem solving is much more appropriate.
