Description
How can I help my child recognize emotions? This Understanding Emotions Social Story Autism Social Skills Identifying Feelings resource helps preschool learners build early SEL skills by teaching children to identify and understand emotions like happy, sad, mad, and scared using simple language and clear visuals.
This social story includes two versions - a longer version with more pages and a simplified version for children with less receptive language. This resource is perfect for teaching emotions and supporting social-emotional learning (SEL) in autism, preschool, and special education settings.
This 25-page social story (plus 10-page simplified version) features real photos and easy-to-understand language to help children recognize common feelings such as happy, sad, mad, and scared.
The simplified version uses fewer words per page and fewer pages, making it ideal for less verbal students or those with receptive language delays.
Teach students:
What emotions are
How emotions feel in the body
Common feelings like happy, sad, mad, scared, and excited
That all emotions are okay
Simple ways to cope when feelings feel 'too big"
This resource is written in a conversational, non-directive style and includes inclusive, diverse visuals. It works well for both group and one-on-one instruction and supports early emotional literacy through clear visuals and repeated language.
Perfect for:
Preschool, Pre-K, Kindergarten, and 1st"2nd grade
Autism and special education classrooms
Nonverbal or minimally verbal students
SEL lessons and behavior support
Speech therapy and counseling
Home, classroom, or therapy use
