Taming the Dragon: Learning to Benefit from Feelings is a curriculum guide to Anger Management of Conflict Resolution for three- to eight-year-olds. This manual has been specifically designed for preschools, daycares, ECS classes, as well as grades one and two. Taming the Dragon is a preventative program based on the concept that many people resort to physical aggression because they are unable to recognize and express emotions and feelings appropriately. This program presents six feelings which are common to all young children. As the children discuss each feeling, they learn to recognize the feeling when expressed by others and to identify the feeling within themselves. The children then learn appropriate ways to express the feeling and to identify inappropriate ways of expressing the feeling. These Feelings are explored through stories, art, music, drama and Centre Activities. It is our hope that if children learn to identify and appropriately express a wide range of emotions, they will be more apt to express their needs in confident assertive ways and resort to aggressive behaviors less often.
