Expresses Emotions (Part 1)

The lesson “Expresses Emotions Part 1” teaches children about the importance of managing their own emotions, both negative and positive, and how that is important in terms of interacting with others in a healthy manner. The children will name and identify at least three emotions, and then practice expressing these emotions verbally, through facial expression, and also through appropriate body language. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 3-5 years, and is the 22nd lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Emotional Development” unit.
