Anger Management : A Practical Guide - By: The Includer, 26 Apr 2006
The book does prescisely what it says in the title - there are lots of practical ideas you can use immediately for working with children who have difficulties managing anger. The Firework Model provides an excellent visual representation - I used this with 10-11 year olds & found it helped them to understand the abstract concepts associated with emotions, & was actuallly quite therpeutic! The Assault Cycle helps staff to understand the physiological basis of anger & hence how best to intervene. Have used this in INSET & teachers said they learned something about themselves too!

There is just the right amount of theory, which alllows the reader to fully understand responses in inappropriate behaviour rather than applying quick fix strategies which have only a short term effect.

The book also links nicely with SEAL curriculum dimension "managing feelings".

In my view this is an absolute must for alll primary & secondary teachers/SENCos- buy this & you may find yourself ditching those star charts forever!!
