This image is a worksheet designed to help you practice
self-regulation. This means learning how to handle big feelings (like anger or frustration) so you don't "explode."
The worksheet asks you to do two things:
1.
Circle ideas from the pictures that would help you calm down.
2.
Write down tools you can use in the blank lines at the bottom.
Since this is a personal activity, there is no single "correct" answer like in math. However, here is how you should complete it based on the strategies shown:
Step-by-Step Guide to Solving This Worksheet
Part 1: Circle some ideas to use
Look at the boxes with pictures. These are healthy ways to calm down when you feel angry. You should circle the ones that work best for you. Common good choices include:
*
Take deep breaths: Breathing slowly helps your body relax.
*
Count to ten: This gives your brain a moment to pause before reacting.
*
Go for a walk: Moving your body can help get rid of extra energy.
*
Get a drink of water: Sometimes taking a break to drink helps reset your mood.
*
Ask for help: Talking to a teacher or parent is a strong choice.
*
Think happy thoughts: Imagining something nice can change how you feel.
*Note: Do NOT circle things like hitting, yelling, or throwing things. Those are not calming tools.*
Part 2: "These are some tools I can use"
On the blank lines at the bottom, write down specific things *you* like to do. You can copy the ideas from above or add your own. Here are examples of what to write:
1.
Deep Breathing: Write "Take 3 deep breaths."
2.
Squeezing a Stress Ball: If you have one, this is a great tool.
3.
Listening to Music: Writing "Listen to my favorite song" is a good tool.
4.
Drawing: Writing "Draw a picture" helps many students calm down.

To complete this worksheet effectively:
1.
In the "Circle some ideas to use" section: Circle positive actions such as
