Take your learners on a journey into the mind and body of Riley as she faces the changes and challenges that come with growing up. This interactive resource, brought to you by Into Film and Disney to celebrate the upcoming cinematic release of Inside Out 2, develops resilience and mental well-being through the exploration of emotions and feelings. Learners will study the Inside Out 2 trailer by thinking about their expectations for the film. They will consider the new characters and discuss why Riley might be experiencing a complex mixture of feelings at this time in her life. The class will use our Wheel of Emotions https://www.wheelofemotions.co.uk/ digital spinner to learn more about the characters and develop a wider vocabulary to discuss their feelings. Learners will use an ‘axis of emotions’ to plot how Riley’s emotions and feelings change, to learn that no feelings are ‘wrong’ and to discover that our responses to our emotions and the emotions of others can often change how we feel. Learners will also be encouraged to consider the effects that different emotions can have on our bodies, to think about where emotions might be felt and how those sensations might feel. They will discuss that not everyone has the same physical responses as each other and that it is important to be empathetic to the ways people experience emotions differently. Finally, learners will consider what they could do to help Riley deal with complex emotions and celebrate the role that all the emotions she is feeling play. This lesson is supported by a home learning activity that asks pupils to try out different well-being activities and there is an optional competition where pupils could win a Crafting Corner Kit for the whole class, worth £185.
