Although it is normal to get mad at others from time to time, we should always try our best to control our anger instead of expressing it in bad ways. When we're mad, we might shout at other people or say mean things to them. After all, anger is like a fire. It can make you hurt others or yourself! Luckily, there are a few simple things you can do to stay calm. For example, try taking a deep breath. That gives you an opportunity to calm down and become a little less angry. You can also take a walk, go for a run, or write about your feelings. Getting angry is normal, but what you choose to do with your anger is up to you!

Lily: What's wrong, Judy?
Judy: Well, my parents aren't happy with my grades.
Lily: Really? Weren't they pretty good this term?
Judy: Yeah, but my parents have very high standards. They often compare me with my cousin, Kate. She gets better grades, plays the piano well, often wins awards ...
Lily: I'm sorry to hear that. But I'm sure your parents just want you to do well, although they may not show it. Why don't you talk to them? Until you talk to them, they might not know how you feel.
Judy: I guess ... I know my parents love me, but sometimes I think they love Kate more. I'm afraid I'll cry if we talk.
Lily: How about writing them a letter so that you can get your message across clearly?
Judy: Oh, that's a good idea.
Lily: Writing things down can also make you feel better.
Judy: Thanks! Just talking to you makes me feel better already!

Dear Ms Li,
Thank you very much for your help in my English learning!
At the beginning of the term, I felt very nervous about speaking English in class. Later I found it difficult to remember new words. But you always smiled at me to make me feel relaxed. You also taught me fun ways to make word cards. Now learning English has become much easier and more enjoyable for me!
I will always be grateful for your support. Thank you again for everything you’ve done for me!
Sincerely,
Li Hua

Read Kelly's thank-you letter to her teacher. Why is Kelly thankful?
Dear Mrs Thompson,
I want to thank you for being my teacher. You took the time to help me, although you were so busy.
Your classes always made me happy. I used to think that science was boring and difficult, and I did badly in class. I never liked science until I took your class. You encouraged me and made science lessons fun, and slowly, I grew more confident.
I also want to thank you for being kind to me. You helped me a lot, especially after my grandmother passed away. I couldn't talk about my feelings to anybody until you sat with me during lunch that day. You listened to me and talked with me so that I felt much better. That day will always remain in my mind. Thank you so much for being not only my teacher but also my friend.
Sincerely,
Kelly Smith
