Feeling good, feeling sad

As you work through this resource in the classroom, children will:

• understand their own and others’ feelings and emotions and how their actions affect others
• begin to recognise, name and manage their own feelings and emotions and that they are a natural, important and healthy part of a human being
• begin to recognise and manage the effects of strong feelings such as anger, sadness or loss

The resource is made up of five different classroom activities for teachers to run with pupils, with detailed notes for the staff member delivering the activities.

This resource forms part of a wider unit of work around PD&MU. You can find additional resources for Year 3 here.
