Towards the end of last term the children in the Raindrop Room spent time talking about their emotions and learned how to take ‘selfies’ on the I-Pad as they tried to convey different emotions through facial expression. We would like to share some of their thoughts and their super skills with technology.
Anthony: I’m happy ’cause I just like Nursery and playing with everything. I hide from spiders, I feel scared. You have a sad face if someone sits on you.
Freya: I’m happy when I’m drawing Dad. I cry when I’m sad.
Joely: monsters make me sad.
Barclay: I’m sad when I’ve got no friends. When I play I’m happy.
Mason: I’m happy when I’m being good. I’m angry when people are being very very naughty to me.
Kyla: jigsaws make me happy. I get angry if my big brother annoys me.
Fern: I was sad when Daddy left (Nursery) today.
Sophie E.: I’m happy when my dinner comes. I like chips. When Mummy and Daddy make cupcakes then I feel in love.
Ella: I’m happy when I have a chocolate spread sandwich for breakfast. I’m excited when I play with my friends. If I’m feeling sad, I cuddle in to my Mum and she helps me feel better.
Marnie: I’m jealous when Alice has a pencil that I haven’t got and I want it. I feel happy when Kara plays with me.
Skye D.: I’m sad when someone doesn’t be my friend. I’m happy when Lola plays with me.
Kara: I’m angry if somebody a little bit pushes me. I’m happy when someone hugs me. I’m nervous if something really scares me.
Isaac W.: I like riding horses. It makes me happy. I’m only scared of bats ’cause they fly about in your face.
I wonder if you can work out how the children are feeling in their ‘selfies’?
