What To Do:
1. Review, if desired: Use the Emotions 3 Part Cards provided a few months
ago to review the names and facial expressions associated with various
emotions. They are provided here again in case you need to re-print.
2. Discuss: Talk to your student(s) about how it feels to experience each
emotion. Brainstorm some ideas related to why people might feel certain
ways. Example: "When I get angry, my stomach gets upset and my body feels
warm. I feel angry when I think something is unfair or I can't get my way."
3. Prepare to Play the Game: Place game board on a table and gather
around. Shuffle the Identifying & Explaining Emotions Cards and place beside
the game board, face down. (For younger players, use only the "How do ...
feel?" cards. For older players, use both the "How do ... feel" and "... feels ...
because ..." cards.) The youngest player goes first. The oldest player goes last.
4. Play the Game: Take turns picking cards from the top of the deck. Assist
with reading as needed. Players who correctly identify the emotion or reason
for it advance one space on the board. The first player to reach "Finish" wins.
