2nd Grade:
Hardworking Student 1.I understand what it means to have self-control. I have strategies that help me to manage difficult feelings. I also am gaining skills to respond to others when they are dealing with difficult feelings.
Review previous lesson. What can you do if you see someone hurting some else/being unkind? Today the focus will be on how to deal with tough feelings without hurting ourselves or others.
Read the book- Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Activity: Guess the puppets feeling and give a strategy to cope!
Each of the puppets today is in a "bad mood". Make a list with your group of feelings that could be described as bad or difficult. Is there really such a thing as a bad feeling?
Using the list that they created, groups will try to guess the emotion of each puppet. After the feeling is successfully identified, each group will suggest a coping strategy for that puppet. Try out strategies as appropriate.
Review: Give students an opportunity to share about a time when they were very upset and made a choice that successfully calmed them down.
