Writing Mini Lesson - Emotions

Last week we began our narrative story writing. Before writing about the reactions of our characters, we first talked about our own emotions.   

The kids had fun making their best happy faces and sad faces and angry faces too!  Then, we talked about different things that make them feel those emotions.

Here is the list my kids came up with and a follow up activity about their emotions. Next up... putting these emotions and reactions into our story writing.
