Faces & Feelings: JP: 3. The Anger Thermometer - Story

This lesson explores the different range of angry feelings.  Children learn three degrees of anger, from irritated (mild), to angry/ cross (moderate), to furious (severe).  It’s important for children to understand that anger has a range as many children move too quickly to furious when something doesn’t go their way.  Understanding that they can feel irritated or cross and still be in control of themselves is an important lesson.  Later on in the module, children will learn how to let out their angry feelings in appropriate ways.
