Thinking About Emotions

This week the Year 1 philosophers investigated feelings. They first came up with a range of feelings and we talked about these.














Then we dramatised what they might look and feel like.

Joy


Scared


Afraid


Sad


Excited


Excited


Confused


Happy



Angry


We then used out thinking about emotions and our work with metaphors last week to write some poems.
