I can't remember what I was thinking or doing in this picture but looking at it I wonder what I was feeling. Within my experiences with children I find that daily I am guiding a child in sorting through their emotions. I use several books that help children relate to what they are feeling, one of my favorite books deals with anger. Anger is very common in a preschool classroom so to assist me with dealing with this emotion I read
When Sophie Get's Angry-Really, Really Angry... by Molly Bang. This book truly captures the childrens attention as Sophie kicks, screams and roars red fire from her mouth because she is so angry. This book also opens the door for discussion in my classroom, and with my two little ones at home, about
positive ways to handle anger.
