Story
There once was a little boy who had a
bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails
and told him that every time he lost his
temper, he must hammer a nail into the back
of the fence. The first day the boy had driven
37 nails into the fence. Over the next few
weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the
number of nails hammered daily gradually
dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to
hold his temper than to drive those nails into
the fence.
Finally the day came when the boy didn’t lose
his temper at all. He told his father about it
and the father suggested that the boy now
pull out one nail for each day that he was able
to hold his temper. The days passed and the
young boy was finally able to tell his father
that all the nails were gone.
The father took his son by the hand and led
him to the fence. He said, “You have done
well, my son, but look at the holes in the
fence. The fence will never be the same. When
you say things in anger, they leave a scar just Discussion about story

draw it out. It won’t matter how many times
you say I’m sorry, the wound is still there.”
A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.
Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They
make you smile and encourage you to
succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word
of praise, and they always want to open their
hearts to us.
Today we are going to practice taking deep breaths so that the next time you feel a strong
emotion you can calm yourself down.
Activity:
Model deep breathing for students by placing your hands on your stomach and breathing so that your
hands move out to show that you are breathing from your belly. Have students practice taking several
deep breaths with their hands on their stomach so that they can feel the motion.
Have students complete the deep breathing worksheet independently.
Now show these pictures to students on projector and tell them that you calm down yourself
