Synopsis

These activities have a particular focus on developing skills for managing anger, conflict and relating to others. They provide specific, structured tasks that can be used during one-to-one mentoring intervention and for group work.

The 20 activities include:

• My Anger Triggers – For students to recognise the initial signs of anger and identify some ways of defusing the emotion of anger.
• Anger Matrix – To give students the opportunity to map their approach to anger and visualise where they are going and where they would like to be.
• Initial Self-Assessment: Relating to Others – To give students the opportunity to assess themselves in order to provide a baseline for measuring progress with a focus on relating to others and issues of conflict.
• Student Reassessment and Evaluation – To give students the opportunity to reassess themselves in order to measure progress.
• How I Feel When I am Angry – To give students the opportunity to reflect upon the physical responses to anger.
• A Letter Home – For students to recognise how others may view their behaviour and reflect upon the impact this behaviour has upon others.
• Ways of Coping – For students to generate ways of coping in moments of crisis.

• Conflict: What it is and How to Deal With it – To raise awareness of the skills students will need to enable them to mediate between students in conflict.

• Crime Scene Investigation – To give students the opportunity to act as investigators and look objectively at a given situation and come to their own conclusion, thereby encouraging independent thinking.
• What Happens Next? (1 & 2) – These activities aim to help students to consider a set of circumstances and consequences.
• Stop Seeing Red – To identify strategies for coping with highly charged emotional situations.
