STEPS to Solving a Problem: S-T-E-P: The last part of the STEP problem-solving process is “P: Pick a Solution.” To help pick a good solution you can ask yourself a few questions: Is the solution safe? Is it respectful? Could it work for everyone involved in the problem? Once you’ve thought about and talked through these questions with everyone involved, you’re ready to pick a solution. Remember, if the first solution doesn’t work out like you thought, it’s okay! You can always pick another one and try again. Now that you have all the steps to being a better problem-solver, try putting them into practice whenever you have a problem!
