Lesson Plan
Session 1: Meet Emotions
Students will identify and name four basic emotions—happy, sad, angry, and surprised—through story cues, a matching game, and coloring activity.
Recognizing and labeling feelings builds emotional awareness, supports self-regulation, and fosters positive social skills in young learners.
