Digital Restorative Practices | Student Activities and Teacher Guide

Restorative practices are rooted in restorative justice. This practice involves focusing on repairing relationships opposed to punishing individuals for harm done. In addition to helping students resolve conflicts, using restorative practices in the classroom can help promote well-being, accountability, empathy and forgiveness. 

Whether you’re teaching virtually or in person, this resource can help students process a conflict and actively participate in restoring relationships that have been damaged due to a conflict. 

These slides are easy to use and share digitally with students. Once complete, students can share their slides with one another to better understand the others point of view.

Restorative conversations can be facilitated virtually with this resource!

This resource includes:

• 2 teacher guides.
• Facilitation tips.
• 2 part student activity to identify underlying emotions that may result in conflict with others and how to reframe thinking patterns.
• Easy, step-by-step instructions for students to digitally participate in productive, restorative conversations.

Happy Facilitating!
