Introducing Emotions - ActivInspire Flipchart

Contents of ActivInspire Flipchart
Emotions introduced include happy, sad, calm, excited, angry and worried

1. Drag images out of “the bag of emotions” to reveal an emotion
   Drag and drop the word to match the emotion.

2. Drag and drop emotion to the face, discuss physical features of the face that show the emotion, i.e. tears, frown, smile etc.
   Use Magic Ink tool - (file, tools, magic ink) to erase face to check if emotion matches.
   (This generates lots of excitement in the class! Even my classroom assistants were amazed.)

3. Add in the names of the children in your class, allow them to come up to the board and choose how they are feeling. After I had introduced this slide within the lesson, I display this slide of the flipchart each morning for the children to check in independently.

4. Click to reveal a different activity, discuss how you might feel during each activity.

This resource can be utilised in any primary age group, I initally used it with a SEN setting with senior pupils, but have subsequently used it in a variety of primary classes.
