Check understanding

  • Use at least five emotion words beyond the basic six in everyday conversation
  • Explain the difference between two similar emotions such as angry and frustrated
  • Choose a precise emotion word that fits a described scenario
“If your child doesn't get invited to a classmate's party, can they describe whether they feel disappointed, jealous, lonely, or a mix — rather than just saying 'sad'?”
