Description
Class Experience
Students will learn to identify some typical primary emotions underlying the secondary emotion of anger. They will learn to identify these emotions first by examining the book character "Alexander" as he navigates through a very bad day. Next students will discuss an anger-provoking situation in their own lives and process through it using worksheets they will have at home. Last, students will learn to use an "anger wheel" for use at a later time to process through their emotions at home with their parents.
I have a master's degree in special education with an emphasis in behavior. I teach social skills to elementary school children on a daily basis.
Homework will be an anger-wheel used to process through emotions with parents after an episode of anger.
I will email the necessary worksheets to all students prior to class.
There will be no assessment for this class.
50 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
This class will use the book "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" by Judith Viorst
