Feelings and actions are not the same W1-mt_TU3BcLOgiV-s1

  1. Take a breath, then ask your friend for a turn. · A breath can give you a pause before asking. You do not have to wait for jealousy to stop, and a pause does not give permission to take the toy.
  2. Angry is a feeling; hitting is an action. · Angry names a feeling. Hitting names something a person does.
  3. False · You can ask for help while you still feel upset.
  4. It gives you time to think about what to do. · A pause can give you time to think. Its purpose is not to hide the feeling or require calmness before a helpful action.
  5. Take a slow breath before asking to join. · A slow breath is one pause Zara can try when safe. Speaking faster or starting before choosing her words does not give her that pause.
  6. He felt angry and did not throw the blocks. · The story states that Dev felt angry and did not throw blocks. It does not say he became calmer or paused before stomping.
  7. Call for help now, without counting first. · If someone is hurting you, call for help right away. Counting or trying to solve it alone must not delay help. You can call even if you cannot get away.
  8. A pause may need to be followed by more time or help. · A pause can help without being enough on its own. Priya may need more time or help. Needing support does not mean she must restart or decide alone.
