This lesson focuses on helping students identify personal emotions, recognize physical triggers associated with those emotions, and independently apply calming strategies to manage their feelings. It introduces various emotions such as joy, sadness, anger, and surprise, while also guiding students to connect these emotions to physical sensations in their bodies. The lesson includes engaging activities like matching emotions to facial expressions, creating a personal 'Body Map' to identify where they feel different sensations linked to emotions, and practicing calming techniques such as deep breathing and grounding exercises.
