Expected answers:
- All feelings are okay
- We all feel a variety of feelings
- There are many different words we can use to describe how we feel
Ask students how they felt about sharing their feelings with the teacher
in their feeling notes last week. Tell them that at the end of the lesson
we will hand out a journal for each student to write down their feelings
whenever they would like to get something off their chest. It can be
private or shared with the teachers. Home-made journals
Focus students in on the first point. All feelings are okay to have but
sometimes are behaviour associated with these feelings are not okay.
Sometimes when we are angry, our bodies and brains react to let us
know that something has upset us. Sometimes when I am angry my
heart pounds and I might even start to cry. So, on the inside I feel my
heart pounding, and on the outside I cry. (Add to the board)
2. What kind of signals do you give others to show that you are
2
angry?
3. Some feelings on the inside also show on the outside at the same
time. When I cry on the outside, I can feel that within me as well.
Can you think of anything else that you do on the outside and can
feel on the inside?
5. Can we feel angry on the inside and not show it on the outside?
Example
* Prompt with these ideas however allow whatever they feel to be written down,
so long as it is appropriate
Now that we have spoken about all the different behaviours and
reactions associated with anger. We are going to look at ways to calm
down and return from strong feelings of anger.
Comic Activity
2:25pm Students will be given a comic template. On this template they will
show the progression of someone feelings angry, and then using one
Comic strip templates
of the discussed techniques to calm down. Model to students your
example, explaining the different elements.
Sharing
Choose two students with different comic ideas who worked well to
3
show their comic to the class. Ask them to explain the situation making
2:45pm
their character angry, then the technique they used to calm down.
Final thought
Remind students that every emotion is normal and OK, even
uncomfortable feelings. All we have to do is learn to react to those
feelings in positive, healthy ways in order to get past the feeling and
not make our problems worse.
Before the end of the lesson, review the ideas we had to calm down
after feeling angry.
Collect student comics and take note of any interesting insights students have
(certain behaviours they associate with anger or situations that make them
angry, included in their comics). Continue Anecdotal Records.
