Welcome the student. Introduce yourself and explain that today they’ll build their Chill Out Toolbox to manage anger. Mention this is a safe space to learn and practice new skills.

Point to each bullet and read aloud. Emphasize that these skills can be used anytime they feel upset.

Ask: “What does anger feel like in your body?” Guide a short discussion. Highlight that noticing feelings early can help us calm down faster.

Hand the student the Anger Trigger Journal Template. Guide them to think of recent times they felt angry and list at least three situations.

Show the Deep Breathing Balloon Visual. Model inhaling for 4 seconds (inflate), exhaling for 4 seconds (deflate). Then practice three cycles with the student.

Explain that counting backwards gives the brain something else to focus on. Model counting from 5 to 1 slowly with the student—pause between each number.

Show the Calm Down Technique Cards. Let the student pick one card and explain it. Encourage them to talk through why they chose it and how it might help.

Describe a quick scenario: “You lose a game piece and feel your face heat up.” Ask the student to name the trigger, then choose and use one of the strategies.

Hand over the Chill Out Toolbox Reflection Sheet. Read each question and let the student respond. Write down their answers together.

Congratulate the student on completing the session. Encourage them to use their toolbox whenever they feel angry and remind them they can practice anytime.
