    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True

    • Reflecting on the causes of conflict: try to help pupils to reflect on the causes of their anger

    A. Developing active listening techniques in pupils so that they can communicate effectively is important.
    Explanation
    The strategies that would be useful to help pupils self-manage their behavior include reflecting on the causes of conflict, changing negative feelings, and developing active listening techniques. Reflecting on the causes of conflict helps pupils understand the reasons behind their anger, which can lead to better self-control. Changing negative feelings involves helping pupils reframe their negative emotions into more positive ones, which can help them manage their behavior more effectively. Developing active listening techniques allows pupils to communicate effectively, which can prevent conflicts and promote better behavior management.

    • Stuffers

    • Blamers

    • Exploders

    • Withdrawers

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Stuffers
    A. Withdrawers

They may prefer to isolate themselves rather than confront the issue directly.

    Many pupils resort to anger, conflict and confrontation as a final resort.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Many pupils may resort to anger, conflict, and confrontation as a last resort in certain situations. However, it is not accurate to say that all pupils do so. Some may have developed effective coping mechanisms or may choose alternative approaches to resolve conflicts. Therefore, the statement that "many pupils resort to anger, conflict, and confrontation as a final resort" is not true.

    Avoid an downward spiral of confrontational behaviour.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that avoiding confrontational behavior can prevent a downward spiral. However, the correct answer is False because avoiding confrontational behavior alone may not necessarily prevent a downward spiral. Other factors such as effective communication, conflict resolution skills, and willingness to compromise are also crucial in preventing a negative cycle of confrontations.
