Guest Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 In my classroom i am setting up a 'feelings wall' for next term. Ideas which we have so far are * emotion flowers - children peg their name onto a flower which shows how they are feeling * photo's showing various emotions * variety of emotion story books to read hanging on the wall (its a low wall which i will be putting cushions next to) *mood music to listen to. Can anyone think of anything else which we could add to enhance the area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 How about a mirror? Also have you seen SEAL resources. They have fantastic photograhs showing different emotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_64 Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Oh dear! When I read the topic title I thought it meant textures. Sorry, I think my brain is befuddled - thats what you get from going on holiday and soaking up too much sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_4544 Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I was on the SEAL course earlier this year and one school used the emotion displays as a starting point for ircle time discussion. The children moved their own name/picture as their feelings changed through the day. Another display was used to help the children develop the vocabulary to describe how they felt.
