Anger is
a natural emotion but channeled in the wrong
direction it turns into violence and
destruction. These lesson plans help students
learn how to better deal anger and
violence.
- I Hate You - Most of us, in
a moment of anger, have said these ugly words:
“I hate you!” This classroom experience allows
students to understand that people usually
dislike the actions of others, not the people
themselves. Small groups discuss what hatred is,
where it comes from, and how to understand this
powerful emotion so they can avoid unnecessary
conflicts.
- Hot Under The Collar - We
all get angry at different things. Not everyone
may feel as strongly about something as we do.
This activity helps students understand that
anger is a natural emotion and that each of us
sees things differently.
- What A Drag! - Anger is a
natural emotion. What's important is deciding
how you handle your anger. With this lesson
plan, students explore the idea that repressing
anger and carrying it around is self-defeating.
They discuss healthy ways to control anger.
- Walk The Talk (3 parts) -
It's predictable that as long as individuals
treat each other disrespectfully, there will be
incidents of violence in our homes, schools, and
communities. Students explore the connection
between respectful behavior and reduced
violence, as well as the economic ramifications.
- We’ve Got Power (3 parts) -
Young people can feel powerless in the face of
terrorist attacks, gang violence, and school
shootings. With this three-part series, students
create a small-group project that addresses the
issue of random acts of violence. They are
reminded that there are far more good and caring
people in the world than those who wish to do
harm to others, and that it takes only one
person with one idea to spark a positive force
for change.
