'The Big Feelings, Very Small, Thesaurus' Poster featuring The Scribbles Crew
Talking about emotions and feelings can be difficult for children. We have put together a BIG feelings thesaurus to support children with having the words and vocabulary to share how they are feeling, and why.
This resource features The Scribbles Crew, a group of friendly looking emotions characters that can be created by any child. They are just that: scribbles!
Suitable for EYFS, KS1, KS2.
You can use this resource in a whole-class, small group, or 1:1 setting.
Using this BIG feelings thesaurus poster help to build emotional literacy skills in children.
