A unique, proven approach to anger management for elementary and
middle-school aged children.
Anger is a natural human emotion, but if it isn't managed properly its
effects can be devastating. Seeing Red is a curriculum designed to
help elementary and middle-school aged students better understand their
anger so they can make healthy and successful choices and build strong
relationships. This completely revised and updated edition includes a
comprehensive anti-bullying component, complete with cutting-edge
material specific to cyber-bullying and social media.
Designed especially for use with small groups, Seeing Red enables
participants to learn from and empower one another. Its unique group
process helps children and teens build important developmental
objectives such as leadership skills (taking initiative, presenting in
front of the group), social skills (taking turns, active listening), and
building self-esteem (problem solving, interacting with peers). Key
concepts and activities include:
- Spotting anger triggers and taking responsibility for mistakes
- Finding healthy ways to deal with provocation and avoiding losing
control
- Identifying feelings, learning steps to control anger and exploring
consequences.
Facilitators will learn how to empower participants through role
playing, helping them to identify associated feelings and recognize
negative behaviors. Each session includes objectives, a list of
supplies, background notes and preparation tasks for the leader, a
warm-up activity, an explanation of the various learning activities, and
a closing activity. See for yourself why Seeing Red remains one of the
most highly-regarded resources among professionals in the field of
children's anger management.
