The story

It is Tower Challenge day in Maple Class. When Leo’s elbow knocks the tower down, Ben feels a big red feeling rush up inside him like a volcano, and he shouts something unkind. With help from Ms Harper and the calm corner, Ben learns that angry feelings are normal, and that what matters is what we do next.
