Teaching Feelings and Big Emotions

Understanding different emotions is important for children, but understanding how they affect them personally is crucial to a child’s emotional development. This heart-themed template encourages children to think about how some of the big emotions affect them and what makes them feel a particular way. The different emotions that are covered in this activity include:

  • Mad
  • Proud
  • Scared
  • Excited
  • Happy

✂️ Give Them the (Safety) Scissors 

This template makes for a bonus cutting skills activity, depending on your students’ ages and abilities. 

With adult supervision, cutting

 skills help students work multiple muscle groups and their brains, plus:

  • strengthen finger and hand muscles
  • build dexterity and fine motor skills
  • improve hand-eye coordination
  • Develop focus and attention. And all of these skills are necessary to use a pencil and a fork; button a shirt and tie shoes; write, type and swipe.

Scissor skills are brain and muscle skills!
