Learning journey

Your child is learning about emotions — naming different feelings, understanding that everyone has emotions, expressing feelings with words instead of actions, and recognising what triggers their emotions.

Evidence of understanding

  • Give an example of a time their feelings changed during a single day
  • Explain why two children might feel differently about the same event
  • Recognise that feelings are temporary and can change

Assessment prompt

If you and Feelings Change and Differ watch the same film and you find it funny but Feelings Change and Differ finds it scary, can they understand why you both felt differently?
