Anger Management Affirmation Chart for Kids

I use this Anger Management Affirmation Chart with students in my elementary school.This chart would also benefit middle and high school students with anger issues who need help for anger management.

I came up with this anger management affirmation chart when I had several students with severe anger issues. I find that with many mental health issues, you need to keep switching the coping skills around to keep the interest of the child.

Make sure you are using an anger management journal and other anger management resources (found on the link below) to keep anger management fresh and interesting.
