Wellbeing and iPad – Self Regulation and Awareness


 

Title Cover


This lesson is designed to explore students’ emotions and how to regulate these positive and sometimes negative feelings. This also provides a great insight into a child’s mind and what makes them tick, allowing you as the teacher to know more about their emotional wellbeing too!

Throughout this lesson they will learn some cross-transferable skills using Keynote on the iPad that can be used in other learning areas.

Emoji Keyboard, make sure it is turned on in your settings.

  • Students will then add captions, or recordings to each image, labelling the emotions they represent.
