Emotions: A Detailed Unit on Feelings and Emotions

Teaching children how to properly identify and deal with their emotions is crucial. This unit helps students recognize emotional states, perspective taking, understanding of emotions, and emotional regulation all in kid friendly language and activities. This can be implemented whole group, small group or intervention style. It is super helpful for students with social cognitive deficits as well.

By providing kiddies with the proper vocabulary, and an outlet to discuss their feelings, we will help them grow into level headed adults.

This unit is a total of 95 pages and can be adapted into a preschool classroom, kindergarten, first grade, or even second grade room.
