COOL IT! A Student Workshop on A - N - G - E – R By Mr. Letson

Is it wrong to get angry?

Anger is a normal emotion Everyone gets angry Emotions are not wrong or bad What we do with our emotions may be wrong or a bad choice Allowing anger to get out of our control is a bad choice We can stop this from happening and make better choices with our anger

Examples of making bad choices with anger  Hitting, kicking, shoving or any physical contact with others when angry.  Throwing or kicking objects when angry  Losing control: screaming, ranting, raving, refusing to calm down.  Using inappropriate language or gestures  Using threatening body language or tone of voice (including sarcasm) when angry.

What can get us really angry in Middle School?

Pressures in Middle School Two Types of Pressure External (things outside of us) Internal (things inside of us) Both types can cause strong emotions – especially anger!

External Pressures More students More teachers More books More homework More choices More decisions

Internal Pressures What will kids think of me? Will I have friends? What types of friends will I choose? What clothes should I wear? How should I treat others? How do I deal with peer pressure?

Healthy Ways Talking to parents Talking to teachers Remaining calm and not jumping to conclusions about something. Unhealthy Ways Keeping problems inside and not talking about them. Snapping at others without information about the problem Listening to rumors and planning revenge against someone who may be innocent How do you handle the pressure?

Reduce and Calm Your Anger with Controlled Breathing 1.Take a full, deep breath. 2.Hold it in for several seconds! 3.Remind yourself to “Think!” 4.Exhale fully 5.Repeat several times until calm. Athletes do this to calm themselves and prior to competing!

T hink about calming down! I interrupt angry responses M ove away to calm down E xit the area completely to calm down This skill helps to interrupt rising Anger TIME! Call TIME! when anger is rising!

T = THINK about calming down! The T in TIME! Reminds you to think about remaining calm. When you start reminding yourself to remain calm down guess what happens – you usually do!

I = Interrupt Anger! The I reminds you to mentally interrupt any angry responses that may cause you problems. Such as stopping yourself from screaming, using inappropriate language, hitting, threatening or doing anything else when angry which will cause problems for you. Don’t do it!

M = Move away when too angry! If you are not able to calm yourself down, move away from the situation if possible for several minutes until you do. You may not be able to do this in school – you might want to ask your teacher for a pass to get a drink of water.

E = Exit and leave the area! If moving away for a few minutes did not help you to calm your anger, you may have to leave for a while. Take a walk around the block, go for a bike ride, visit a friend, play some basketball in the driveway. Exiting is not an option in school, however, if you feel you are too angry to remain in class, ask to see your guidance counselor or your vice principal.
