Weekly Emotions Tracker
Emotions tracker that can be printed weekly to write down your emotions each day using colour coded emotions faces.
Why do you need this?
A weekly emotions tracker helps students develop emotional awareness by prompting them to reflect on and identify their feelings throughout the day. This fosters self-awareness and emotional intelligence, important skills for social and emotional development.
Tracking emotions allows students to recognise patterns and triggers for their emotions. With this awareness, they can develop strategies for self-regulation, such as deep breathing, mindfulness, or seeking support from a trusted adult, to manage their emotions effectively.
How and when might you use this?
This could be used in a variety of ways:
· Teachers can incorporate these worksheets into morning work to draw the colour coded face that reflects how they are feeling at the start of the day. This activity sets a positive tone for the day and allows teachers to gauge students' emotional well-being. It can then be used for an end of day reflection to summarise their day.
· Small group work where teachers can use the information gathered from the tracker to facilitate discussions.
· During counselling sessions to reflect on emotions over time.
· For long term monitoring to see if there are trends and patterns and to monitor the effectiveness of interventions and support strategies.
