Teaching Taking the sticks away from a fight

The chapter says a fire goes out when you stop adding wood. What are some calm words you could say to help a fight cool down instead of getting bigger?
Have you ever heard someone say something mean about another person? What's a kind thing you could do instead of passing the story along?
Why do you think it's smart to learn from a mistake instead of doing the same silly thing again? Can you think of a mistake you don't want to repeat?
