SEL / Life Skill ________________
Materials: Feelings cards
Setting: Anywhere
Say: “Today we are practicing __________ during this game”
Divide the class into groups of 4-6. Give each group a stack of feelings cards set face down. Take turns choosing a card and acting it out for the group members to guess. If the group is having a hard time guessing, you can show them the card and pick a new one or ask someone in the group for help. Variation: Give them a scene to act out and they can only use a certain emotion. For example, they find a broken bike and one person can only be silly and the other only angry.
