The document discusses using feelings thermometers as a counseling tool to help students explore and communicate different emotions. It also outlines the creator's passion for social emotional learning and resources.

A feelings thermometer is a scale that allows students to match the intensity of an emotion to a strategy. It helps students recognize that emotions come in different sizes and can be triggered by certain events. The thermometer described in the document lets students write what emotions look or feel like, what triggers them, times they felt that way, or strategies/people to ask for help.

TOOLBOX FREEBIE
In-depth resources that are flexible, evidence-based, and engaging.

Hi there! My name is Laura. I am a school psychologist and educational


consultant in New York City. During my career, I have also been a Special
Education Director and a Director at a camp for children with Autism. Before I
knew what to call it, social and emotional learning was my passion. It seems
like without that, not much else works very well, amirite? I am truly grateful for
the opportunity to share that passion and knowledge with countless
professionals and students. What a gift.

My store is dedicated to in-depth, evidence based resources that school counselors, psychologists
and teachers can use flexibly to engage some of our neediest students.

Did we just become best friends?


Please, and I mean please, contact me with questions or suggestions. I love hearing what you loved
or less than loved about a resource, what you are struggling with in your practice, or if you want to
grab coffee on a trip to New York. Suggestions are handled quickly, and you will be able to
redownload any future revisions.

Catch a typo or mistake? Definitely email me and be kindly rewarded with a freebie from my store. I
want a perfect resource as much as you do.

Do you have pictures of my resources in action? Post them and tag me on social media. I love
seeing how you are using them.

Need more? Join my Facebook groups: Individual Counseling Toolbox and Behavior Intervention
Toolbox.

Feelings Thermometer
Social Emotional Workshop Toolbox Freebie

Feelings thermometers or scales are an essential tool in your counseling office. I can't
think of something else I reached for or referenced more often with students.

Feelings charts are great, but when a student struggles with a specific emotion like
anger or anxiety, it is better to explore that emotion in more depth.

Scales let students see that:


• emotions come in different sizes.
• they can match the size of the emotion with a strategy.
• that certain events trigger stronger emotions.
• what they look and feel like when they feel certain emotions.

Check out this blog post for more information about how to use my absolute favorite
tool!
