Sometimes it's hard for kids to express their anger appropriately, or to understand what is happening to their bodies when they feel angry. An insightful lesson about anger management can help them identify angry feelings. It includes a picture of a volcano for them to label with words that come out during bursts of anger, as well as the damage that extreme anger can cause.
