New Product :: Emotion Clip Art

Emotion Clip Art

Emotion Clip Art

I’ve recently started experimenting with making my own clipart for things. There are some social-emotional type images out there, but I felt like for emotions, they all contained happy, sad, scared, and angry and that was about it! So, I was really excited once I figured out how to make my own and now I’m sharing them 🙂 These packs include 15 different emotions + line art of 2 different ethnicities. They’re great for making your own lesson materials for sites like TeachersPayTeachers or for making activities for your own classroom! You could also just print them out and make flash cards! The emotions that are included are:

  • Angry
  • Bored
  • Content
  • Disappointed
  • Embarrassed
  • Excited
  • Happy
  • Nervous
  • Sad
  • Scared
  • Shy
  • Sick
  • Silly
  • Surprised
  • Tired

I’m hoping to make some more social skills/behavior/emotion clip art in the future. Is there anything you’d like to see?

New Product :: Positive Thinking Cards

I admit I’ve been a little slow rolling out new products recently. My husband and I are expecting our first child in a couple weeks, so time has been diverted to assembling furniture, washing miniature socks, finding miniature socks ones they get lost in the washer, etc!

However, I’ve been thinking about this product for awhile and have had a few people requesting it, so I really wanted to make sure to get it out before the baby gets here. So, here it is!

This deck was designed to help students learn how to change negative thoughts into positive ones. It’s helpful for students who struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or other mental health issues. Many times, the root of these issues is in a student’s difficulty looking at a situation objectively or in a positive light – everything is bad or reflects poorly on them in some way. Most times, students don’t even know they’re doing it, so if we can focus their attention on their own thoughts, we can help them move past the negative feelings they experience.

The download includes 2 separate decks – a version for older students and a version for younger students – as well as an ink-friendly version of each deck! Blank cards are also included so you can customize your own. I’ve made something similar that I use with my students and what I like to do is to laminate the blank cards and have students come up with their own negative and positive thoughts. They’re really good at it!
