Download this questionnaire to help youth better understand why they get angry and what they need before anger takes over. After they answer the questions to find out what animal they’re most like when they’re angry, have them act out their anger animal or make a picture or mask of their animal. The animal acted out or created can be asked what it needs when it’s angry or how someone can help the animal when it’s angry. This activity will create connections, build understanding, and provide insights to develop strategies for communicating anger in a way that’s helpful, not hurtful.
