Fascinating Fact:

Calming strategies, like slow breathing, counting, or taking a short break, can help when feelings feel too strong. Different strategies work for different people.

In KS2 PSHE, pupils learn that emotions can change quickly and can affect choices and behaviour. This topic focuses on noticing early warning signs, such as a tense body or racing thoughts, and using practical strategies to calm down before a situation gets worse. It also links to empathy and friendships, because managing strong feelings helps you listen, solve problems, and make safer, kinder decisions.

  • Self-regulation: Managing your feelings and actions so you can respond sensibly.
  • Early warning sign: A clue your emotions are building, like a hot face, clenched fists, or wanting to shout.
  • Cooling-off time: A short break to calm your body and mind before you talk or act.
What are good calming strategies for KS2 children?

Good calming strategies include slow breathing, counting, getting a drink of water, stretching, or taking a short break in a quiet space. The best strategy is one you can use safely and quickly.

How do you know when your emotions are getting too strong?

You might notice signs like a tight chest, fast heartbeat, a shaky voice, or thoughts that feel loud and rushed. Recognising these signs early makes it easier to calm down before you react.

What should you do after you calm down from an argument?

After you calm down, you can explain how you felt, listen to the other person, and agree what to do next. If you made a mistake, apologising and putting it right helps rebuild trust.
