This is a link to a restorative justice lesson plan. The lesson plan focuses on teaching students how to develop restorative consequences as a group. In order to do this, students participate in a classroom meeting/restorative justice circle. Students learn about coming to a consensus, how to come up with consequences for offenders, and why offenders commit crimes As a result of this lesson, students will learn how restorative justice can help offenders to stop their negative behaviours and how this can be incorporated into a classroom setting.

One teacher shares several accounts of dealing with difficult situations, sharing the effective and ineffective. There is a 'cheesy' video at the end - however, it is an interesting read and a good perspective from another teacher's experiences.
