This visual can help children begin to understand their feelings. The “mood meter” visual helps learners begin to understand how some emotions might feel more pleasant than others. This chart can be hung on the fridge or in a calming space in your classroom - allow children to just explore the visual. We recommend teaching children about the mood meter at a time when everyone is feeling calm and regulated - this is when children learn best!
