Mild to Strong Emotions
CONCEPTUALUnderstand that emotions come in different intensities — from mild to strong — and that the same emotion can feel very different depending on how intense it is (e.g., annoyed → angry → furious, or nervous → anxious → panicked)
Mastery Evidence
- Place three related emotion words in order from mild to strong
- Rate their own emotion on a simple scale (e.g., 1-5) in a real situation
- Explain why recognising intensity matters for choosing how to respond
Assessment Prompt
“Can [child] tell the difference between being a bit annoyed about losing a game and being truly furious — and explain that they're different levels of the same feeling?”
