How to use this resourcePhotographs can really stimulate discussion on feelings and emotions. When you look at a photo it really can make you actually ‘FEEL’ something.
Show the child a photograph and ask the following:
• What can you see?, ‘hear’, ‘feel’, ‘smell’ or ‘taste’ (Use their senses to describe the photo or imagine what it might be like to be there)
• What do you think is happening in the picture?
• What emotion(s) does it make you feel?
• Why does it make you feel that way?
There are obviously other questions that will develop from your discussions but I would start off with those 4 questions. Example on the next page.
The photographs could also be used as an emotional register. Lay out the photos and ask the child which photo represents their feelings right now? Why?
These are full page photos but it is easy to print them at any size using your printer settings. Please see examples below. Click print, click multiple, change how many
you want to one A4 page. I think that 2 to a page is probably good for working one to one or circle time.
