Worksheet for teaching emotional intelligence to children: Which photo goes with each word?

Today we are launching a new worksheet to work on emotional intelligence with children: Which photo best fits the word? We also included an improvement in the activity Copy the Letters thanks to a client’s suggestion.

If some time ago we presented the worksheet What are they feeling? today it’s the turn of the exercise ¿Which photo goes with each word? In this case emotions are worked on in a slightly more complex way, since the expressions shown are not accompanied by any context.

What does it involve?

Children have to identify the characteristic features of each mood and identify the characters’ emotional state, always relating each emotion to its correct word.

It seems easy, but you must take into account the multiple and subtle nuances that can separate one emotion from another and which can make a significant difference in the reaction they elicit in other people.
