If you’re looking for an easy and effective way to teach kids impulse control, then the Impulse Control Anger Management Board Game is the perfect learning resource!

With creative illustrations, metaphors, and analogies that help reinforce self-control, emotional regulation and impulse control skills, this mental health board game helps students succeed.

If a student struggles to think before they act or has ADHD, this SEL board game can provide a great foundation for their emotional regulation. The engaging approach makes it easy for kids to master the fundamental executive functioning skill of self control and apply the concept to their own lives inside and outside of the classroom. This board game is perfect for counselors, SEL lessons, individual activities, or group work.

✎✎✎ Topics Covered:

Using the analogy of a “remote control” students are asked to reflect on their behavior and the impact when they can:

• “pause and stop” and think about their behavior
• “fast forward” where impulses take over
• “play” when you can just keep going
• “rewind” when they can take a step back after our impulses have got the better of us and think about the consequences.

There are over 115 reflective question cards with 23 cards in each of the five various color-coded areas. These include:

• Reflect – practical and relatable scenarios to help put learning into practice
• Let’s Pause – reflecting on impulse control and its impact
• Better Choices – exploring emotional regulation, coping strategies and strategies
• Let’s Chat – conversation starters to build rapport
• Anger – exploring anger management

This is a great game which is a perfect supplement for our Spanish Impulse Control Mini-Lesson and Workbook

• A 5 minute silent timer embedded in each slide

The Steps:

1. A central statement will be announced to the class and we will define the two sides

of the debate (Agree/Disagree).

2. You will move to the side

of the room with the position that you intend to defend.

3. A timer will be set for 5 minutes, and the debate will start between the two groups.

4. Be concise and attempt to keep you contributions to less than 30 seconds each. The goal is to have an up-tempo debate, where the arguments for and against the prompt are batted back and forth with quick, verbal strokes. When the timer goes off, the conversation is immediately over.

5. A new prompt is displayed and we start another round of quick debates.
