Recognizing Sad Feelings

Recognizing Sad Feelings | Companion Activity helps students identify and express sad feelings using interactive exercises aligned with the life skills video. Students answer yes/no and WH-questions, sequence events causing sadness, and retell the video with visuals. Problem-solving activities guide appropriate ways to cope and seek support.
