2nd Grade- Talked about appropriate ways to express tough feelings and what happens when we don't express them appropriately or at all. We discussed how ALL feelings are ok--it's what we do with them that can not be ok. We talked about how feelings spread. We read the book Andrew's Angry Words. We also talked about how keeping our feelings inside and never showing them is unhealthy, too. Building up upset feelings can make us feel sick and eventually they will come out all at once and we will EXPLODE!! (Ask your second grader how we showed this!! :) )
1st Grade- We talked about effectively expressing feelings (verbally and non-verbally). Read The Way I Feel. Guessed the feelings on each page by how they described them. Talked about how the character showed the feeling and shared our ideas for expressing that feeling appropriately. Mrs. Eagle (my practicum student) taught a couple classes this week and gave pre/post tests that showed growth in the area of our learning target! woohoo :) 2nd Grade- Talked about appropriate ways to express tough feelings and what happens when we don't express them appropriately or at all.
