Teach About Emotions

Resource Description:

In this exemplar video, a teacher helps children explore emotions through movement and role play. Notice how she encourages the children to jump to show happiness and to cover their faces, lower their heads, and walk slowly to show sadness. As the children act out each feeling, the teacher emphasizes the emotion words to reinforce their understanding—an example of engaging children in games and activities to increase their understanding of emotions.
