Meet The Feels

What's it all about?

The Feels is an easy-to-implement, standards aligned curriculum that supports children in learning to identify, welcome-in, and take care of all of their emotions. The curriculum is both distance learning and classroom friendly, which means you’ll be able to help your students navigate the uncertain future together, no matter what the circumstance.

For this lesson series, Join Yeti on a journey of self discovery as she meets her Feels: Scared, Mad, Sad, Worried and Calm, and learns how to support each one.

Lesson 3

Downloads

This lesson invites students to get to know their Mad Feel. This Feel is often misunderstood, labeled as "bad" or rejected, which can lead to shame or increased upset feelings. The goal is for students to befriend their Mad Feel and understand why and when it is in charge, what it is hoping to accomplish with its actions and thoughts, and how to help manage it through healthy emotional expression, no longer identifying Mad as "bad."

Lesson 4

Downloads

This lesson invites students to get to know their Sad Feel and understand the important job it plays in their lives by signaling to others that connections, empathy, and care are needed. Students will identify 4 Special People in their lives who they can reach out to when Sad takes charge.

Lesson 5

Downloads:

This lesson invites students to get to know their Worried Feel and understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions. Students will share examples with classmates of times they have felt worried in order to help them realize that Worry is a common experience about common situations, and that it does not mean they are not capable or strong enough to figure out a solution or think differently.
