About this resource
Description
Children who can name their feelings can talk about them, calm down sooner and understand the people around them. These emotions flash cards help Kindergarten through 3rd Grade students learn the words for 18 everyday feelings, from happy and sad to proud, worried and embarrassed.
Each fold-over card shows a child’s face on the front and the feeling word on the inside, with the sentence “I feel ___.” Six children appear across the set, three feelings each, so students learn to read the face itself and not the person. Show a face, ask the child to name the feeling, then flip the card to read the word together. Children can make the same face and tell about a time they felt that way. These feelings flash cards work well for morning meeting, a calm-down corner, a counseling group, speech and language practice or a writing center where students hunt for exact feeling words.
What’s Included
- A How to Use page with prep tips, steps and extension ideas
- 18 fold-over feelings cards on 6 sheets (print one-sided, fold, then cut)
- Feelings: happy, sad, angry, scared, surprised, excited, worried, silly, proud, tired, confused, embarrassed, calm, bored, loved, disgusted, grumpy and shy
- An answer key card list with a picture of every card
Why Kids Love It
- Bright, friendly faces make every feeling easy to spot.
- Making the faces together turns vocabulary practice into a game.
- Children see that everyone has big and small feelings, and that is okay.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Start with four basic feelings, then add a few new cards each week. Use the emotions flash cards for a daily feelings check-in, play feelings charades with a small group, or ask older students to write a sentence about a time they felt each feeling. At home, families can pull a card at dinner and share a story that matches it.
