Hello Educators,
Behaviour management today!
I love the emotional traffic lights! I may have not used the for years because of the nature of my current classes, but back in the days was a must!
In 2016 my students were obsessed with Inside out, so when I had to taught them about emotions, I used the characters from the movie to do so.
I do not have the same Template anymore in a digital form (I left it in my previous workplace) but I have put a picture of it to give you an idea how I used to use it! I know….it is too old (can you spot the yellow background on the symbols…. oh dear….). Anyway, my point is that I had anger, sadness, and joy as angry, worried and calm. I was moving the pictures of my students (or they were moving them themselves) on the relevant colour of the traffic light depending on how they were feeling/behaving at that time.
Three years ago, I have created another template (This I have it in a digital form!) and I have changed the sadness with fear to represent worried. I took that decision because I have noticed that a lot of my students started to built up their emotions when they were worried about changes, new people etc. so I though that fear was a better representation since they were not necessarily sad.
Once again, I was using the same system: moving their photos on the traffic lights (see my picture example).
I would recommend printing it in A3, so it will fit your students photos.

Hello Educators!
I present you my HOT and COLD collection of PPP and resources!
The file contains 3 different PPP, which you can use separetely or as extention activitites for eachother and one word file with some background photos that you can use for sorting out activitite (look at the pictures and thubnails)!
I have used this lesson both to teach PSHE as well as Science (Topic was Weather/Seasons)! My children loved it because it gives you the opportunity to teach using actual items and sensory hands on resources which children love to explore!
PPP about hot and cold in general, which children can explore different sources of hot (such as a hairdryer) or cold (such as an ice cube). At the end I have a simple experiment of melting the ice.
PPP about hot and cold weather. It includes the differences between hot and cold weather as well as what sort of clothes and items (such as suncream) we need depending on the temperature!
PPP with all the visuals that you will need for the activitite or during the lesson.
Instructions of how to plan and run your lessons.
Examples with photos of how I used these resources in three different levels.
