'Where on the BIG Feelings Scale Am I?': Emotional Literacy Resource
”Where on the scale am I?’ Scaling Feelings and Problems’ has been designed to support children and young people with identifying their feelings and emotions on a scale.
Scaling a problem can help it to seem more manageable but also support the young person in tracking their progress and identifying triggers for their worries.
