2nd Step Tip of the Week – All students are learning about feelings!

  • There are many different feelings – for ex: happy, sad, jealous, surprised, disgusted, angry.  Whether comfortable or uncomfortable, feelings are natural.
  • Students will work towards identifying what they are feeling – putting a name to the feeling.  
  • After that, recognizing that others have feelings too is important. We focus on someone’s face, eyes, body language and we pay attention to the situation for clues about how that person is feeling.  

Practice at Home: Identify and name feelings with your child by using physical clues.  For example: Your child is getting upset when you say it is time for bed. Say, “I can see by the way your mouth is turned down and by your droopy eyes that you are feeling disappointed that it’s time to stop playing and go to bed. Am I right – is that how you are feeling?”
