Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Should use the Activity: Sam’s diary – detailed version for the activity. In addition, ensure they have access to the ‘My emotions – answers’ resource to use as a word bank.
Pupils working at greater depth: Ask children to ensure that Sam does experience positive and negative emotions and to give valid reasons for this. Challenge them to suggest ways in which Sam could deal with the negative emotions when he does experience them.
