Learning objective
- To recognise how others show feelings in different ways and how to respond
National curriculum
All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice.
The PSHE Association Programme of Study recommends pupils are taught:
- H12. how to recognise and name different feelings
- H14. how to recognise what others might be feeling
- H16. about ways of sharing feelings; a range of words to describe feelings
- H18. different things they can do to manage big feelings, to help calm themselves down and/or change their mood when they don’t feel good
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Might need simpler examples where it is clear that the character would think and feel something very different to themselves.
Pupils working at greater depth: Should use a range of vocabulary to describe emotions in order to be more specific. Could explain how someone else is feeling through empathising with them. Could add a speech bubble to each character to show what they might say as a result of what they are feeling. Could explain the different things they can do to manage big feelings.
