Slide Deck

Welcome to Identifying Triggers

Introduce the concept using a fun, colorful background. Show a large, vibrant image of a smiling character and add playful icons (like stars and hearts) around the text. Mention that we'll be exploring our feelings like detectives.

What is a Trigger?

Display simple, eye-catching icons (like a heart, smiley face, and light bulb) to represent different feelings. Emphasize the idea of a 'spark' that starts our emotions.

When Do You Blurt?

Show vivid images of faces expressing different emotions such as surprise, happiness, and thoughtfulness. Ask the student to point to the face that matches their feelings. Use a pointer icon to guide attention.

How to Pause and Think

Include an engaging image of a child taking a deep breath with a subtle animated effect if possible. Add icons like clocks and pause symbols to emphasize the concept of pausing.

This slide now includes an embedded video that explains the relationship between emotions and blurting. Ensure the video is displayed in a clean, uncluttered layout with a visible play button.

Let's Plan Ahead!

Wrap up the session by showing a colorful checklist with playful illustrations (like smiley stickers or thumbs-up icons) next to each action item. Invite the student to choose one strategy they like.
