This week, our core word has been "Feel", as we explored different emotions and talked about how we are feeling. We have been learning the Makaton sign and using visuals to help us understand and communicate our feelings.

The children loved joining in with feelings songs and looking at themselves in the mirror to create different facial expressions, showing emotions such as happy, sad, excited, and surprised. Through a range of fun, multisensory activities, we have been developing our understanding of emotions and how they can change throughout the day.

Throughout the week, we have encouraged the children to recognise and validate their feelings, using our resources to help identify and talk about different emotions. It has been wonderful to see the children engaging with the activities, exploring and developing their emotional awareness.We even made our own colour monsters to demonstrate a mix of feelings.
