Our Beacon writes...How to play safely...

When we play, we must do so safely, such as not pushing people around or play selfishly. We must share and take turns and learn to play games that can involve everyone.

At times, when we are playing, we get angry or unhappy because of what other people do to us. Here are strategies that we can apply when we are angry:

• Count to 10
• Sit at a corner
• Play by yourself
• Use the traffic light strategy
• Red - stop your actions
• Amber - Think about what you are going to do next
• Green - Act out your coping strategies

Remember, don't let anger spoil your fun!
