Students explore their feelings. In this anger awareness lesson, students are divided into pairs and take turns sharing a time when they were angry. Students are asked to remember the bodily sensations and thoughts they had when angry. As a class they develop two lists, one for body responses and another for thoughts. Students discuss how they should handle situations when they're angry and learn a breathing technique to help them calm down.
