This activity relates to emotional development and helps students build a self awareness of their own and others' emotions. It starts off with a simple scribble drawn with a dark color. This scribble is likely to have various spots that students can color in and add different colors to.
We picked colors that represented different feelings including
- Sadness
- Anger
- Happiness
- Anxiousness
- Love
- Fear
Then, after coloring in our scribble, we had a chance to think of a variety of questions that relate to what we drew such as:
- Look at the different colors, why are some next to each other and some far apart?
- Is there one color that there is a lot of? Why?
- Did you have a harder time coloring some of the colors than others?
Overall, this was a great way to get students talking and sharing things about their emotions at a deeper development and I think that the activity is worth while.
