Pre-K Reading: Character Feeling Face

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: naming a character feeling from a read-aloud clue

1

Name or draw the main character.

2

Circle happy, sad, worried, or excited.

3

Point to the story picture that gives your clue.

4

Draw the character's face.

5

Tell an adult: I think ___ feels ___.

6

Choose a later page. Did the feeling change?

Grown-up guide
  1. Offer two feeling words at first if four choices are too many.
  2. Ask the child to point to a visible story action or face before naming the feeling.
  3. Accept a feeling word in the child's own vocabulary when it fits the clue.
