Lesson Ideas:
• Cut up the cards. Attach the words onto the back of each card by either gluing them in place or folding them under along the dotted line. Shuffle the cards and ask individual children to select a card to describe how they are feeling. Explore why they might be feeling that emotion today.
• Display the complete poster. Discuss with the children the feelings featured and alternative words that could be used instead of the ‘key' word written, e.g. This child is feeling ‘sad’. Let’s talk about the other words we can use to describe feeling sad? Encourage the children to use alternative words in their everyday language and written work.
• Play ‘Memory’ with the cut out cards and the cut out labels. Have children match the words to the child’s expression.
