When Hurting Turns to Anger

This workbook is for you if you are a teacher tired of dealing with angry students. Practicing the anger-reducing techniques (ART) will help educators learn how to remain calm and in control to teach students how to handle their anger productively. Teachers will practice the following:

How to support angry students

When to encourage angry students to talk

How to help students develop plans of success.

When students need to practice their success plans

In writing When Hurting Turns to Anger: Helping Students, I knew that a workbook would help teachers cement the concepts more firmly in their minds. Additionally, a workbook would provide a method for practicing the concepts, making them easier to use in classrooms.

This workbook is used individually or in a group of participants. It is used interactively with When Hurting Turns to Anger: Helping Students. Teachers will review corresponding book chapters for each workbook chapter to refresh their memories and use them as a guide.

The workbook contains exercises to complete, providing practice and cementing the ACT skills in teachers' minds. Once completed, educators can keep the workbook handy to refresh or review specific skills.
