Just had parent's evening for my year 5 DD. Everything fine other than her getting frustrated with other pupils easily and a couple of times this term she has absolutely lost it screaming at them. Apparently straight afterwards she knows that that behaviour isn't okay and apologies but what can we do to help her deal with this build up of feelings before she blows? One of her friends has additional needs and behaves in this way but we have discussed with our DD that her friend can't help it due to her needs which we thought she understood but maybe it is learned behaviour? (did ask her teacher about this and she said it might be as DD hasn't been like this in previous years)
She internalises things and puts a lot of pressure on herself to do everything well so I'm worried she is getting anxious about things and not expressing it.
If this was your DD what would you do? How can we approach this with her with out making her feel we are telling her off but get her to see this isn't okay behaviour? she has never done this at home so it is a side to her that I've not experienced.
Any thoughts/ advice greatly appreciated.
