In Kindergarten and First Grade, as well as in our groups, we are learning about Anger. We're learning about what our body feels like when we are angry. We're also learning to identify our anger triggers, or what makes us feel angry. Finally, we're learning about strategies to manage our anger. We've talked about:
-Reading
-Exercise
-Writing about our feelings
-Taking deep breaths
-stretching
-Taking a 2 minute vacation
-Shouting into a pillow
-Talking with a friend or a grown up
-Listening to music
-Pounding Play Doh
-Drawing or painting
-Quiet time in our room
-Being outside in nature
-Playing with a pet
All of these (and more) can help your child to release angry feelings!
