The Zarn a.k.a "Prompt Management of Inappropriate Behavior/Assertive Assessment Scales/Problem Solving"
One of your fellow scientists has just run into the camp, screaming up a ruckus about something they found. Amidst the commotion, you go to figure out what the big deal is. It appears that another set of artifacts was found in a dried up water basin near the southern end of base camp. You get the opportunity to hold these precious things, but you immediately recognize what they are. It's merely a set of dice! What secrets could such simple things hold?

Using the sheets in front of you, you and your partner(s) are going to roll a eight-sided die, which will determine the scenario that you and your partner will discuss. Each scenario, featuring various inappropriate behaviors exhibited by students, is one that may or may not come up in your future time as a teacher, so it is important to know how you would handle each situation. Assume that you will be "assertive" in the situation, meaning that you will take the necessary steps to solve the issue at hand. Once taken on the assertive role, flip the coin placed with the D8. If it is HEADS, reenact the same scenario, but as if you are being "unassertive" in the situation. If it is TAILS, reenact the same scenario, but as if you are being "hostile" in the situation. Do this several times in the time allowed. And most of all, have fun with it.
