SESSIONS AND RESOURCES
SESSION 1: INTRODUCTION
November 9, 2018
For the introductory session, the group established norms and listened to the book When Sophie Gets Angry - Really, Really Angry... After the book, the group discussed how they related to Sophie and how Sophie calmed herself down when she got angry.
SESSION 2: HOW ANGRY AM I?
November 16, 2018
Students discussed the levels of anger using the Anger Thermometer adapted from Coping Skills For Kids. Students colored the different parts of the thermometer and what they looked like at the different levels. We also discussed strategies to respond to anger.
SESSION 5: I KNOW HOW TO RESPOND
December 14, 2018
Students were given different possible scenarios that could cause anger. Group members then decided which options were the best way to respond (Throw something, scream, tell the teacher, hug yourself, count to tel, take a deep breath, or use a stress ball). Because this was the final session, students were given stress ball as a reminder of the group.
