Big Feelings
You are feeling so angry your body feels like it's on fire.
What would The Human Torch do to cool down?
I could count to 20 or imagine flying high in the clouds to calm my fire
A friend gets too close and you feel uncomfortable. What would Invisible Woman do?
Like Invisible Woman, I would imagine a force field and say "Can you give me a little more space, please?"
You lost your turn in a video game. You feel upset. What would you do? What would you learn as a superhero?
I could pause, take 3 deep breaths, or say "it's okay, I'll try again next time".
Like a superhero learning from mistakes
You feel like yelling, but you know that’s not the best choice.
I could count backwards from 5, do a wall push-up, or whisper instead — a superhero finds calm ways to handle stress
What is your superpower when you feel nervous or shy? Think about Invisible Woman
I can use quiet bravery — like Invisible Woman — by doing deep breathing or talking to one person at a time.
Someone tells you "no" and you feel upset. What would The Thing say?
Like The Thing, I would say "I feel upset" instead of yelling or hitting.
I could squeeze a stress ball or ask for a break
A classmate says something mean to you. What would The Thing do or say?
I could walk away and tell an adult.
Or say, "I don't like that" in a strong but calm voice, like The Thing showing his feelings
You hear a loud noise and get scared. What could you do as Invisible Woman?
I could cover my ears or go to a quiet room
I might hug a stuffed animal or use a calming object, like Invisible Woman using her force field
You made a mistake and feel bad.
“I can say, ‘I’m sorry,’ and try again
Everyone makes mistakes, even Mr. Fantastic — what matters is what I do next.
If you could have any power to help you calm down, what would it be?
A freeze power to stop and take a break when I’m upset
Or a teleport power to go somewhere peaceful.
You are so excited in class that it's hard to sit still. What would The Human Torch do?
I would wiggle my fingers quietly under the table, or ask for a short movement break, so I don't interrupt like a fire explosion
You want to play a game, but your friend chooses something else. What would Mr. Fantastic do or say?
I can be like Mr. Fantastic and stretch my thinking.
I could say, "Okay, we can play your game first, then mine later."
Your sister is bothering you. Show how you can ask for space calmly as Human Torch
I can say "I need some alone time" or "please stop, that's bothering me"
Then walk away if need to cool off like Human Torch
