Lesson Plan

The Feelings Train

Express emotions about the new year

In this lesson, students will create a collaborative 'Feelings Train' where each student adds a 'car' representing an emotion they feel about the new year. This visual exercise helps them articulate their feelings and see how everyone contributes to the classroom's emotional journey. This activity is important as it encourages emotional expression and understanding among young students, fostering a supportive classroom environment.
