When on a bus, stay in your seats and keep noise to an appropriate level. Do not borrow or lend money. Bring your own supplies, lunch or water. Do not expect others to take care of your needs. Always be a good sport.

12 What happens then? Behavior – Patterns, minor problems, major problems. Reflection sheet must be done well! It is your ticket back to class. You must be here at 7:30am the next day to review it. Your parent must accompany you. Remember group is more important than the individual.

16 Anger Management What is anger? Is anger OK?
How can we make anger work for us in positive ways?

17 Types of Anger: What are your stressors?
Situational Shoe string - projected anger. Chronic Am I frustrated? Am I hurt? Do I feel rejected? Do I feel abandoned? Am I afraid? Do I need something? Am I dependent on something?

18 Ways to handle anger better….
Stop! Take time to breathe and do some self talk. Think before you act. Don’t make things bigger than they are. Have you ever blown a minor situation into a major one? Labels. Avoid labels like stupid, idiot, moron, or worthless when you are angry. Don’t say things like you always do that or you never do that. Name calling or putdowns. Don’t do it to yourself or others. Think calmly. Just saying “relax” to yourself will help a lot. Think of many possibilities. Try and put yourself in another persons shoes. How does your anger effect the people around you? No demands and no commands. Your rights. Their rights. Take a time-out. Hassles and problems. Tough times never last, tough people always do!

How important is this conflict to me? How can I explain the conflict in behavioral terms? What do I want from the other person? What are my feelings about this conflict. Are my feelings in proportion to the seriousness of this conflict?

29 Set a Time and a Place Find a private setting
Set a convenient and sufficient amount of time. Decide if you need a mediator. (Can be a teacher or another student)

30 Communicate in the adult mode.
State the conflict clearly and concisely. Separate the conflict from the person. Be a good, active listener. Be specific and state problems in terms of behavior: “You forgot to pick me up” vs “You’re a lousy friend” State feelings using “I” messages. “ I feel angry when you forgot to pick me up after you told me you would.”
