Feeling Safe Feelings and Behaviours Lesson 2 Little Mouse © NHS Leeds CCG Partnerships 2018

Learning outcomes Knowledge Skills Our emotions can affect the way we feel and behave How we communicate our emotions can make others feel good or bad about themselves. We can try to control our behaviours by talking about how we are feeling. We can recognise when others are feeling happy or sad and ask them how they are. Read slide 2

How we will work together Can you remember the group agreement we have already talked about, let’s take a minute to think about them. Teacher notes Read these through with the children. Hopefully the ground rules will be displayed in the classroom already. e.g. We will respect each others feelings and opinions. We will listen to each other without interrupting. We will keep what people talk about in the classroom confidential. We can choose what to share in the class, or we can talk to the teacher afterwards. 3

How many different feelings can we name? What do we already know? How many different feelings can we name? Make a list of all the different feelings on thought bubbles. Create a class ‘emotions chart’. This might include pictures of people expressing different emotions to compliment the words. 4

Let’s get started Happy anxious playful We can experience many different feelings and they can make us behave in different ways. carefree sad Revisit the list of feelings/emotions from the last session. Ask the class to add any more that they can think of. secure angry mischievous 5

Emotions and Behaviour Emotions are what we feel Actions and behaviour are what we do. Sometimes our emotions can influence our behaviours. helpful sad happy ignoring Discuss with the class how emotions and behaviour might be linked. E.g. How do we behave if we feel very happy? Do we run about and laugh if we are feeling sad? Do we hug people if we are angry with them? angry fight 6

Little-mouse feels confused Listen to the next part of the story Little-mouse is confused by his feelings. Sometimes he likes the Big Grey Mouse and sometimes he feels frightened and confused. © Worth Publishing. All Rights Reserved. Last time we listened to the beginning of a story about Little-mouse and his mother. Little-mouse was feeling safe with his mother. Read from p 5 (Last year, Little-mouse’s mother had made a new friend) to p 8 (Little-mouse tried to please the Big Grey mouse. He felt confused) Discuss in small groups and feed back to whole class. Each group can take a different question from the next slide. 7

Class discussion How do you think Little-mouse’s feelings affect the way he behaves? What else could he do? What would he like the Big Grey Mouse to do? What would he like his mum to do? What would he like his teacher to do? Divide the class into small groups. Each group can discuss a different question : what would little-mouse like the Big Grey mouse to do? Mum to do? Teacher to do? © Worth Publishing. All Rights Reserved. 8

What is Little-mouse thinking? Draw a thought bubble on a large sheet of paper for each small group. Ask the children to write anything they think little-mouse might be thinking, but isn’t able to say. © Worth Publishing. All Rights Reserved. 9

Fight, flight or freeze? When we are frightened or upset, our brains tell us to run from trouble or danger, stay and fight or freeze. What did Little-mouse do? What else could he do? What do you usually do? Is this helpful? What else could you do? Discuss with the class that fear can make us behave in different ways. Give examples of people running away, fighting or freezing. Does this happen in the playground? At home? © Worth Publishing. All Rights Reserved. 10

Our emotions and our behaviours Discussion: in Pairs How do my emotions affect my behaviour? What do I do when I feel... When I feel told off for something which isn’t my fault? When I feel excited? Ask the children to discuss in pairs what they do when they feel the different emotions. When I feel angry? When I feel happy? When I feel frightened? When I feel sad? 11

Little-mouse talks to the teacher Sometimes worries are too big to be solved by children on their own. In pairs: Pretend to be Little-mouse, and the teacher. Teacher: What would you ask Little-mouse? Little-mouse: What might you say to the teacher? What might happen next? Role play. Ask the children to role play the teacher and Little-mouse. What would they say. Children can show their brief improvisation to the rest of the class. Discuss any similarities and differences. Look for open questions, good listening skills ,evidence of empathy and opportunities for Little-mouse to talk about how he feels. 12

How has our learning progressed? We can have lots of different feelings: some which make us feel good, some which make us feel bad and some which make us confused. How we communicate can make others feel good or bad about themselves.. It is never ok to try to make others feel bad to make ourselves feel better. Ask the class to think about what Little-mouse is saying. Can they think of any more things to say? We can control our behaviour by trying to talk about how we are feeling Our feelings can affect the way we behave © Worth Publishing. All Rights Reserved.

Taking the learning away Think about how you behave when you feel sad, angry or happy and how it might affect people around you. Ask someone at home if they can tell how you are feeling by the way you are behaving. Notice how your friends behave during the day and ask them if they are ok. Our feelings can affect the way we behave so it’s good to talk about them. © Worth Publishing. All Rights Reserved. 14
