Activity 2: Emotional awareness (10 min)
Step 1:
Talk the learners through the RULER approach and the concept of a mood index.
These are helpful strategies for recognising emotions in ourselves and others in
order to find ways to regulate or control strong emotions.
Use the ‘Emotional Awareness’ presentation.
Step 2:
Hand out the mood index and Emotion RULER handouts, or ask learners to copy them down and fill them out, focusing on a time today when they felt an intense emotion.
