Year 5 PSHE emotion thermometer

Today in PSHE we discussed the range and intensity of emotions people can feel and how to cope with these feelings. The children produced an 'emotion thermometer' which detailed the scale of the emotions they feel and how they express these emotions. As part of this, we discussed how they could move down the thermometer if they reached the top end of the scale and felt overwhelmed.

The children explained how creating an emotion thermometer gave them a better understanding of their feelings and how to manage them.

 

Tyler in Willow said, "The emotion thermometer helped me think about how I react."
