Responses to Anger Worksheet

Worksheet for children to think about their responses to anger including what their anger triggers are, how their body physically responds, what they think when they are angry and what other emotions they feel during that time besides anger.

Why do you need this?
Writing down their responses to anger helps children become more aware of their emotions, triggers, and reactions. This self-awareness is essential for developing emotional intelligence and understanding how their thoughts and feelings influence their behavior. These insights empower children with the tools and skills necessary to effectively manage their anger and navigate challenging emotions.

How and when might you use this?
This worksheet could be used in a variety of ways:
· In PSHE lessons that focus on understanding and managing their emotions.
· Following a conflict or behavioural incident as a way for a child to reflect and as a tool for self-reflection.
· During counselling sessions to support students in developing coping strategies for managing anger.
· As 1:1 support for a child struggling with anger management.
· This worksheet could be used proactively with students as a preventative measure to promote self-awareness and emotional regulation.
