Your old classmate keeps talking to you at your locker in the mornings, but you don’t want to stay friends with them, so you ignore them until they go away.
Doesn't fully solve the problem, ignoring could make them confused/hurt. Say "I don't really want to talk."
During video game club, a student who annoys you starts telling you about a video game you already know about. You say, “Why are you telling me that?! I already know!”
Rude/aggressive tone. Say, "Yeah, I've heard about that before"
During leisure, a student you aren’t friends with asks if they can join your game. You say, “No, we don’t want you here because you always make up rules.”
Excludes the peer. Say, "Yes, but can we talk about the rules first?" or "We've already started, but you can join next time."
In class, a student who asks a lot of questions interrupts the teacher to ask about something he already answered. You say, “Are you serious? He just said that!”
Makes the peer feel embarrassed, aggressive tone. Use headphones, take a break, take deep breaths. Or raise your hand and ask if you can help answer.
In fitness, your classmate is breathing really loudly, and it’s annoying you. You say loudly to your teacher, “Can you tell him to breathe quieter?”
Makes the peer feel embarrassed, aggressive tone. Use headphones, take a break, take deep breaths, ask if you can move to a different spot further away,
