Identifying escalating levels of anger within themselves is an important skill for children’s healthy social-emotional development. This creative “anger thermometer” worksheet provides a visual scale for students to evaluate their internal frustration, paired with critical reflection questions to facilitate de-escalation at each phase.

My Biggest Worry Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Not Grade Specific, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables
Anxiety can easily overwhelm children if fears and “what-ifs” grow too big in their heads. This creative visualization worksheet provides a launchpad for students to address their biggest worry in a manageable, step-by-step way. By externally analyzing concerns, rather than letting them snowball internally, kids reclaim control and perspective. The worksheet guides stressed children to first identify one standout worry plaguing their thoughts. They illustrate what this concern “looks like” in their mind – maybe a monster under the bed or dark swirling cloud. Describing it visually externalizes the worry from emotion into a concept now on paper. Students then examine two paths this worry could take at its worst and most likely outcomes. They draw their catastrophic envisioning of events if the worst were to happen. Contrastingly, they explain the realistic resolution based on past experiences and probability. This exercise illuminates how worries often play out better than the disastrous scenarios we imagine. Finally, children list constructive actions they can take to address roots of the worry, preventing both best and worst case outcomes. Coping strategies like talking to trusted adults, contingency planning or controlling reactions empowers kids. Allowing children to visually dump out, inspect and problem solve their biggest worry is immensely relieving, putting things into healthier perspective. This worksheet builds essential emotional management tools that alleviate anxiety now and better equip students to assess concerns rationally moving forward.

That Bothers Me Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Social Skills, Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
To enhance the effectiveness of this That Bothers Me Worksheet, I've been pairing it with some coping strategies that I believe will resonate with our students: Pause and Breathe: When emotions run high, advising students to halt and take a few deep breaths can make a world of difference. It acts as a buffer, preventing immediate reactions and aiding in clearer thinking. Challenge Your Thoughts: Let's empower our kids to scrutinize those initial feelings of annoyance. Prompting questions like, "Is this a genuine reflection of the situation?" can lead to more objective and calmer assessments . Practice Empathy: Truly an essential life skill. Steering them towards seeing things from another's viewpoint can often diffuse personal grievances and provide greater understanding. Reframe the Situation: Highlighting the art of positive thinking can guide them to find beneficial outcomes in challenging situations. Rather than getting caught up in the problem, they can focus on potential growth or lessons learned. Practice Gratitude: Have you tried gratitude journals in class? Or perhaps a simple discussion on the day's positive moments? It's an excellent method to shift their attention to the brighter side of things. Letting Go: One of the hardest but most vital lessons is understanding that not everything is within our control. Teaching adaptability and acceptance can be truly transformative. Engage in Self-care: Emphasizing the importance of self-care can't be overlooked. Encourage activities that allow them to unwind and rejuvenate, be it reading, doodling, or just some quiet moments. Seek Support: We should constantly remind them that it's perfectly okay to share their feelings. Be it friends, family, or school counselors, seeking external perspectives can often shed light on troubling situations. Lastly, I must mention the wonderful clipart from Kari Bolt Clip Art that I've used – truly a game-changer for engaging visuals! Clipart images courtesy of Kari Bolt Clip Art

Anger Triggers Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Social Skills, Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This worksheet is for children to think about times that they have been angry and what it was that caused the anger. The idea of this is then to then encourage a conversation about how they could avoid this in the future. Identifying triggers that make you angry is beneficial for several reasons: Self-awareness: Recognizing your anger triggers increases self-awareness. It allows you to understand the specific situations, events, or behaviors that provoke your anger. This awareness helps you anticipate and prepare for potential triggers, allowing you to respond in a more controlled and constructive manner. Emotional regulation: When you can identify your anger triggers, you gain greater control over your emotional responses. Knowing what sets off your anger gives you an opportunity to develop strategies and coping mechanisms to manage your anger effectively. You can implement relaxation techniques, practice deep breathing, or engage in activities that help you calm down before anger escalates. Relationship improvement: Understanding your anger triggers can improve your relationships with others. It allows you to communicate your triggers and boundaries to the people around you, helping them understand what might provoke your anger. This shared knowledge promotes healthier communication, reduces misunderstandings, and can lead to more respectful and considerate interactions. Problem-solving: Identifying anger triggers helps you identify patterns and underlying issues that may contribute to your anger. It enables you to address and resolve those issues more effectively. By identifying triggers, you can also explore alternative solutions or behaviors that can prevent or mitigate anger-inducing situations. Personal growth: Recognizing anger triggers provides an opportunity for personal growth and self-reflection. It allows you to explore the root causes of your anger and examine any underlying beliefs, values, or past experiences that may contribute to your reactions. This self-reflection can lead to personal insights, growth, and the development of healthier coping strategies. Health and well-being: Unmanaged anger can have detrimental effects on physical and mental health. By identifying triggers, you can take proactive steps to minimize or avoid situations that lead to anger. This, in turn, can reduce stress, improve overall well-being, and contribute to better physical and emotional health.

Changing My Thoughts Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This worksheet is designed to support a much wider discussion with children about the way in which their thoughts can effect their feelings. They can think about how negative thoughts have impacted their emotions and can then think about alternative thoughts they can have that might change their emotions for the positive. To support a child to change their thoughts to help change how they feel you can try to help them in: 1) Identifying negative thoughts: Pay attention to your thoughts and become aware of any negative or unhelpful patterns. Notice when negative thoughts arise and how they contribute to your emotions. 2) Challenging negative thoughts: Once you've identified negative thoughts, challenge their accuracy and validity. Ask yourself if there is evidence supporting or contradicting these thoughts. Consider alternative perspectives or explanations for the situation. 3) Replacing with positive or realistic thoughts: Generate positive or realistic thoughts to replace the negative ones. Focus on thoughts that are more helpful, balanced, and aligned with evidence. For example, if your negative thought is "I'm a failure," replace it with "I have had successes in the past, and I can learn from my mistakes." 4) Practicing affirmations and positive self-talk: Use affirmations or positive self-talk to reinforce positive thoughts and beliefs. Repeat affirmations or encouraging statements to yourself regularly. This can help reshape your thinking patterns over time. 5) Cognitive reframing: Reframe the way you interpret situations by changing your perspective. Instead of viewing a situation as a problem, try to see it as a challenge or an opportunity for growth. Look for silver linings or potential lessons in difficult circumstances. 6) Seeking support: Share your thoughts and concerns with a trusted friend, family member, or therapist. They can provide an outside perspective, offer support, and help challenge negative thoughts. 7) Practicing mindfulness: Engage in mindfulness techniques to observe your thoughts without judgment. Mindfulness can help you become more aware of your thoughts and emotions, allowing you to respond to them in a more intentional and constructive way.

Positive Thinking Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Worksheet in which children can reflect on a specific situation that happened to them: they can think about what they were thinking, how they reacted and how they felt. They can then think about a more positive thoughts they could have had and how that may have changed their reactions and emotions. Changing how you think about a situation can lead to more positive thinking and emotions through a process called cognitive restructuring. Here's how it works: 1) Identifying negative thoughts: The first step is to become aware of your negative or distorted thoughts about a situation. These thoughts are often automatic and may involve cognitive distortions such as catastrophizing, overgeneralization, or personalization. 2) Examining evidence: Once you've identified the negative thoughts, you can challenge them by examining the evidence supporting or contradicting them. Look for alternative explanations or more balanced perspectives. 3) Generating alternative thoughts: Generate alternative, more realistic, and positive thoughts related to the situation. These new thoughts should be based on evidence and provide a more balanced view of the situation. For example, if your negative thought is "I always fail at everything," a more balanced alternative thought could be "I have had successes in the past, and this setback does not define my abilities." 4) Evaluating the impact: Reflect on how adopting these new thoughts might change your emotions and overall outlook. Consider the potential positive outcomes or shifts in perspective that may result from the new way of thinking. 5) Practicing and reinforcing new thoughts: Actively replace negative thoughts with the more positive and realistic thoughts you've identified. This process requires practice and repetition to strengthen the new cognitive patterns. Over time, it becomes more automatic and natural. By engaging in cognitive restructuring, you can gradually shift your thinking patterns, leading to more positive thoughts and emotions. By challenging negative thoughts and replacing them with more accurate and constructive ones, you can reduce negative emotions such as anxiety, sadness, or anger, and cultivate more positive emotions like optimism, self-confidence, and resilience. This change in thinking can have a profound impact on your overall well-being and how you perceive and respond to various situations in your life.

Cognitive Triangle Poster
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Not Grade Specific, Posters, Classroom Decor
In cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), the cognitive triangle is a conceptual framework that illustrates the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is often used to help individuals understand how their thoughts influence their feelings and actions. The cognitive triangle consists of three components: 1) Thoughts: This refers to the cognitive processes, beliefs, and interpretations that individuals have about themselves, others, and the world around them. Thoughts can be rational, helpful, and realistic, or they can be distorted, negative, and unhelpful. CBT emphasizes identifying and challenging negative or distorted thoughts to promote healthier thinking patterns. 2) Emotions: Emotions are the subjective experiences and feelings that individuals have in response to their thoughts and interpretations. Emotions can range from positive (such as happiness and joy) to negative (such as sadness, anxiety, or anger). The cognitive triangle highlights that thoughts can directly influence emotions, and changing one's thoughts can lead to changes in emotional experiences. 3) Behaviors: Behaviors represent the actions or reactions that individuals engage in based on their thoughts and emotions. Thoughts and emotions can significantly influence one's behavior and choices. For example, if someone has negative thoughts about their abilities, they may avoid certain activities or situations. CBT aims to help individuals identify unhelpful behaviors and develop healthier behavioral responses based on more accurate thinking patterns. The cognitive triangle suggests that there is an interconnectedness between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By understanding and addressing each component, individuals can work towards positive changes in their lives. CBT techniques, such as cognitive restructuring, focus on identifying and modifying negative or distorted thoughts to promote more balanced thinking, healthier emotions, and adaptive behaviors.

How My Body Reacts to Emotions Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
In this worksheet children can think about when they feel an emotion, how that emotion makes their body react physically and then how they want to act and what they want to do when they feel that way. It is important for a child to think about how their body reacts to different emotions because it helps them develop emotional intelligence and self-awareness. Understanding how emotions manifest physically can provide valuable insights into their own feelings and behavior. By recognizing physical cues such as changes in heart rate, breathing patterns, muscle tension, or stomachaches, children can start to identify and label their emotions accurately. This awareness enables them to better manage their emotions, make healthier choices, and communicate their needs effectively. It also fosters empathy and understanding towards others' emotional experiences. Ultimately, teaching children to connect their emotions with their physical sensations promotes overall emotional well-being and better interpersonal relationships. This worksheet can be linked with ideas of cognitive behavioral therapy. Cognitive behavioural therapy can be helpful for children in many ways. It can help children to understand and cope with their emotions in a more constructive way. It can also be used to teach children healthy coping strategies for managing their anger.

When Things Go Wrong Worksheet
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Not Grade Specific, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This a worksheet for children to reflect on a time in their life when things went wrong or did not go the way they had hoped. Children can think about how it made them feel, what it made them think and in turn how these feelings and thoughts came out in their actions. This can also lead to further discussion about whether their actions were appropriate and how they may do things differently in the future. Reflecting on times when things went wrong can be helpful for a child in several ways: * Learning from mistakes: By reflecting on past experiences, children can identify what went wrong and understand the reasons behind it. This reflection helps them learn from their mistakes and make better decisions in the future. * Building resilience: Reflecting on challenges and setbacks can teach children that it's normal to encounter difficulties in life. They can develop resilience by recognising that they have the strength to overcome obstacles and bounce back from failures. * Developing problem-solving skills: Reflecting on past failures allows children to analyse different aspects of a situation and brainstorm alternative solutions. This process helps them develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, enabling them to approach future challenges more effectively. * Building self-awareness: Reflecting on their own experiences helps children gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their strengths, weaknesses, and emotions. This self-awareness can lead to improved self-confidence and self-esteem. * Fostering growth mindset: Reflecting on failures can promote a growth mindset, where children understand that intelligence and abilities can be developed through effort and learning. They learn to see setbacks as opportunities for growth and improvement rather than personal shortcomings. It is important to guide and support children during this reflection process, emphasising the lessons learned and encouraging a positive outlook. This worksheet can be linked with ideas of cognitive behavioral therapy. Cognitive behavioural therapy can be helpful for children in many ways.

6th Grade Math: Algebra Inequality Matching Game

Teaching your students about how to write and evaluate inequalities in algebra can sometimes end up being a bit dry. Try adding this game to your algebra unit to bring a little movement and collaboration to your classroom. It's a super simple game : just print the cards and cut them out. There are 32 cards in 16 pairs. Deal one card to each student in your class. They should spend half a minute looking at their card and thinking of other ways it could be represented. For example, if they have a number line: what inequality does it show? If they have an inequality, could it be simplified? Then, all the students get up and move around the room (SILENTLY!). They can use gestures while looking at each others' cards and trying to find their match. Pairs move to the side of the room until everyone is matched up. It's that simple! Of course, you could also use these cards for a standard memory game where you flip two cards at a time and try to find matches. I have also included a second set of cards that have pairs of fractions and decimals (for example 1/20 and 0.05). Grades to Use With: These cards are designed to target the standard 6EE.B.8 in grade six classrooms, but they could also be an excellent quick review in grades 7 and 8!
