TitleIdeas for Teaching Feelings

From http://teachers.net/mentors/spanish/topic18707/5.18.08.11.41.14.html

Here are some ideas for teaching feelings, from contributors to the Spanish Teachers Chatboard on Teachers.net:

---
BINGO will work. Have the students draw pictures of feelings in the box and then say then say the feeling.

Pictionary

Matamosca (Flyswatter)-Have pictures of the feelings on the board and call out the feeling. Students then "hit" the correct feeling.

Place pictures around the room and have the students describe how each one feels.

You could also incorporate cuando (when). For example, ¿Cómo estás cuando tienes un examen y no has estudiado? (How do you feel when you have a test and you haven’t studied?)

I present the emotions by acting them out (dramatically). I then say an emotion, and the kids have to act it. I then act them out again, and kids have to tell me what I am feeling. I take digital pictures of the kids posing as different emotions (they're pretty funny!), and I use them as flashcards, and for other activities. I ask questions like 'who is sad?' and 'how is Emily?'. I describe situations (this person's hamster just died) and they have to guess who it is and how they are feeling. We also do info gaps, matamoscas, etc...
