On Wednesday Stella went to the Cranberry Bog. It was such a beautiful day!
Stella wanted to go for a swim in the bog, but her mom said no.
How do you think Stella was feeling? What ZONE was she in?
Stella was SAD and in the BLUE zone.......maybe a little FRUSTERATED in the YELLOW zone too.
Stella used her coping skills to stay calm and get back to the GREEN zone. She chose to:
Walk away
Count to 5
Think about her choices
She could:
A. Jump in the bog anyway because she really really wanted to, but mom may get mad.
B. Listen to mom and find something else that would make her happy.
What do you think Stella chose, A or B?
scroll down for the answer
STELLA CHOSE "B"- She found a rock (one of her favorite things as you know) to carry all the way home
Great job Stella! She knows that when you name your feeling and use your coping skills to calm down, you can make good choices!
