Recognizing Calm Feelings

Recognizing Calm Feelings | Companion Activity encourages students to identify and maintain calm feelings through interactive exercises based on the life skills video. Students answer yes/no and WH-questions, sequence calming activities, and retell the video visually. Problem-solving activities help sustain calmness in challenging situations. Language tasks include categorization of calm behaviors, compare/contrast calm vs. upset states, and utterance expansion with verbs and prepositions. These promote emotional balance and self-regulation.
