This emotions and feelings booklet allows students to communicate HOW they feel develop coping and self management strategies, self regulation, calming strategies, emotion regulation when feeling mad, angry, confused, sad, embarrassed, worried and scared etc. The booklet can also be a way for students to communicate to YOU exactly why they are feeling a specific emotion along with a means to let YOU know what YOU can do to help them calm. At times, when students feel an intense level of an emotion, it can be difficult for them to fully articulate exactly what is wrong and what they need you to do to help them. Sometimes requiring a student provide a verbal response can even further intensify an emotion resulting in actions and behaviors that may not always be appropriate for a situation. Students can keep their emotion book with them so that they can be encouraged to independently utilize the different coping/self help strategies that they can engage in whenever they feel a negative emotion. Using the booklet, students will be able to efficiently communicate their needs, and with teaching and guidance, students can be taught to communicate their needs BEFORE their level of an emotion intensifies. Having students communicate to you about HOW they feel, WHY they feel that way and what you can do to help them can help reduce problem behavior or a student ‘shutting down’/become non-responsive, as students are able to get their needs met before a situation escalates. Different variations of booklets are provided including booklets that have: - Written descriptions/strategies, - Visual descriptions/strategies (both pre-made and visuals that can be added/switched out as needed) - Written AND visual strategies - Blank descriptions so students can write what is wrong with a dry erase marker - Booklets that can be fully edited/personalized for a student Emotion pages included in this booklet are: Angry Mad Worried Confused Excited Happy Shy Nervous Scared Sad Upset Hurt Sick Check out other products that pair well with this tool: I am feeling communication cards Self regulation and emotion control lapbook Keep calm.

I know a lot about overthinking because it used to be a real problem for me. I'd replay events of the day, conversations I'd had, things that happened.
I have a confession---when I see something good, I take it and use it. I don't like to recreate the wheel, and I'm really not all that creative. I also work with people that are very hard-working and creative, so when I stepped into my co-worker's office (Heather Petrusa, SLP) and saw this homemade self-regulation scale, I grabbed it (with her permission) and told her that this was worth using and sharing with all of my blogging friends! She said that our mutual friend, an autism itinerant teacher, Leah Wilson, was actually the one who created it, and she (Heather) just tweaked it. I'm sure Leah won't mind sharing, so here it is! Anyone who works with children with autism knows the difficulties in regulating emotions. Within an hour, a child can go from 'sleepy' to 'boiling' and not have strategies to get to the 'green' area. I liked this scale that Heather and Leah developed because it integrated elements from the 'How does your engine run?' program with emotional states and specific strategies (worded with 1st person statements encouraging more independence with handling regulation in the classroom.) A therapist and teacher can use this scale to first teach emotions, strategies, and self-reflection, and then teach the child to apply these in the classroom. So---thanks Heather and Leah! I'm so happy to work with you! I'm sure your kids are too! To download in Boardmaker, click here! (You can then edit to fit your child's particular needs) To download in pdf, click here! .
