A set of 30 matching pairs emotions cards as a PPT and PDF download (3 A4 pages in total).

Body language activities based on the story ‘Harrison Spader, Personal Space Invader’ by Christianne Jones (online readaloud linked).

This story and the illustrations made sense to him and he enjoyed discussing the body language shown.
