Ready-to-Use Lessons for the Elementary Grades Everyone gets angry, and kids are no exception. Anger is a powerful emotion that must be dealt with throughout life. Emotionally mature adults have learned to acknowledge and control anger, and to release it in healthy ways. Many children–particularly those who lack emotionally mature adult role models–require extra support and practice in order to develop anger-management skills.
Don’t leave this process to chance or depend on temporary “band-aid” approaches. Provide direct, explicit instruction through fun activities involving movement, relaxation, coping techniques, role-plays, the arts, activity sheets, sharing circles, literature and more. With this practical, easy-to-use guide children learn to:
- Identify angry feelings and understand anger as a normal emotionn
- Accurately read “angry” body language and deal with anger in others
- Identify situations that can create anger
- Express anger in appropriate ways
- Problem-solve situations that could lead to conflict
- Replace negative with positive thinking/attitudes
