UNTHINKABLES

GRUMP GRUMPANINY

• Sometimes I'm grumpy
• Sometimes I'm rude to people
• This affects other people and they have uncomfortable thoughts about me
• It affects me too as it makes me sad
• It makes me sad as it affects others

Untitled Slide

• I can change this by thinking of something else and forgetting about what made me angry
• I can walk away to get a bit of space
• I try to remember how much fun they are
• Take a break cards didn't help much
• I can walk away
• I can play with someone else until I'm ready to come back

GLASSMAN

• I have big huge reactions sometimes even if it's the littlest problem
• Other kids notice and sometimes they don't want to play with me
• This happens a lot
• I want to change this
• It makes me feel like I am not their friend

STRATEGIES

• Ask the teachers for help
• See Aerian for help
• Curling into little ball and waiting till I'm ready to join the game again
• One thing to try is to look at the size of the problem

SIZE OF THE PROBLEM

• Sometimes my reaction is too big for the problem
• For example if I'm running and someone pushes me into a tree accidentally I get furious
• I could say to myself "they are my friend and they wouldn't hurt me on purpose"
• 'It hurts right now but the pain will wear off'
• 'I would like to play with them again so I won't make a fuss'

Untitled Slide

• One thing I need to know is the different size of problems
• A big problem would be if someone shoved me hard into a wall on purpose

Untitled Slide

• A medium problem would be if I forgot to bring something important to school

Untitled Slide

• Most of my problems are small ones

• I am also Brain Eater
• I know this because I get distracted and don't listen to the other children
• I think this might make them think that I don't respect them
• I want to change this

STRATEGIES

• Look at something closer to them so I can hear them better
• I find it difficult to look at the person who is talking because I get distracted by them
• In class I am able to listen to the teachers as I am not allowed to move or they make me look and I can't get away
• It's boring but I have to do it

Untitled Slide

• At home I get distracted by TV, games
• My mum gets really angry when I don't listen. Dad is more polite

Untitled Slide

• Sometimes I am very energetic
• If I see something exciting

Untitled Slide

• Sometimes I do funny stuff at the wrong time
• For example when we line up for recess - this is the wrong time
• Sometimes I say a joke to the wrong person and they find it offensive
• I wait to see if they think its funny before I tell the joke. I try the joke out first to test it

Untitled Slide

• He works together with energy hare-y
• He makes me move side to side
• I take body breaks which helps
• The teacher takes me outside to do some jumping - this helps
• Fidget tools help me too
• The Hokki stool helps a lot
• The back jacks help too as I can stretch my feet out and stop the energy
