SPANISH VERSION - Feelings Ferris Wheel I Craft Activity I Emotions Lesson

In this creative activity students are encouraged to identify their emotions, isolate why they feel that way and explore healthy and constructive ways to manage them is very important. Students are encouraged to create their own “Feelings Ferris Wheel” which includes the different feeling carriages.

Just like a Ferris Wheel, our feelings come and go. We won’t feel that way forever. There are no good or bad emotions, but there are good and bad ways of expressing (or acting on these emotions). Learning how to express emotions in acceptable and constructive ways is a separate skill that is built on the foundation of being able to understand emotions.

Within this mini-lesson and craft we will explore the following:

1.Emotional Literacy – understanding feelings and emotions
2.Isolate that feeling and attribute where it came from.
