WHEN HURTING TURNS TO ANGER IBD

Sinopse

Warning: If you are a teacher who believes that kids need to be punished in order to curb their angry misbehavior, this book is not for you. For the rest of us teachers who struggle daily with trying to teach kids with anger issues, When Hurting Turns to Anger: Helping Students is the book for you. áDr. Anstine TempletonâÇÖs mentor Dr. Nick Long taught his graduate students that forewarned is forearmed. That is what using the anger reducing techniques (ART) shared in When Hurting Turns to Anger does for educators, administrators, counselors, and school personnel-it forearms adults from becoming reactive to studentsâÇÖ anger.What is ART? It is a seven-step process that helps students talk about their anger and learn ways to handle strong emotions effectively, before they reach the crisis stage. Therefore, ART can be used with any students, in any school. The theory is students can learn skills to handle their anger productively in school rather than becoming overwhelmed, losing control, and cycling into crises.áUsing anger reducing techniques educators learn to·ácontrol their own anger,·álook beyond the studentsâÇÖ inappropriate behaviors,·ácalm out of control students,·áget students to talk about their problems, ·áshow students how to create plans of success, ·áteach students how to make amends for misbehavior, and ·áhold students accountable for following their success plans.áInternalizing the anger reducing techniques, students learn that·ákids have a right to learn,·ákids may not take learning away from others,·áitâÇÖs okay to feel angry,·áitâÇÖs not okay to act out anger inappropriately,·áthere are many ways to productively deal with anger,·áteachers can teach how to problem solve,·áitâÇÖs a must to have a plan of success, ·ákids must make amends for any hurt they have caused, and·áthey will be held responsible for following their success plans.áIn an easy to learn process, Rosalyn Anstine Templeton shows how to master anger that frees teachers to teach students self-control, how to use anger effectively to succeed, and ways to make amends.
