“When asked
about their feelings, most people will usually say they feel: bad, sad, mad,
good, or fine. But underneath ‘good, bad, sad, mad, or fine’ are many words
that better describe how we feel. Taking the time to slow down and identify
what we are really experiencing can help us feel better and can improve our
communication and relationships with others.” While this resource is geared
towards teens and adults, it could be modified to use with older school-age
children.
