Emotions Iceberg Display pack – Item 587
After writing this blog post I decided to try and make some paper resources. This emotions iceberg display pack can be used on the wall or just as an activity.
The emotions iceberg is a metaphorical representation of the concept that there are visible and hidden aspects to our emotions. It suggests that what we express or display on the surface is just a small part of the broader emotional experience we have internally.
The iceberg is divided into two main parts:
- 1. Visible Emotions (the ones that show on the surface)
These are the emotions that show and what can be seen
Visible emotions could include happiness, anger, sadness, excitement, fear, surprise, and disgust.
They are usually accompanied by recognisable facial expressions, body language, and vocal cues. - 2. Hidden Emotions (the ones that are hidden under the surface)
These are the deeper and less visible emotions that lie beneath the surface.
Hidden emotions are often more complex, and influenced by personal experiences, memories, beliefs, and thoughts.
Examples of hidden emotions include shame, guilt, jealousy, anxiety, vulnerability, insecurity, loneliness, and grief.
Identifying hidden emotions requires self-awareness, and empathy towards oneself and others.
All the sheets print as A3 apart from the worksheets which are A4.
Included in the Emotions Iceberg display pack:
- Emotions iceberg in A3 but you could print it bigger using adobe print settings
- Two pockets to include emoji faces and word cards
- A set of 20 emoji cards that will fit into the pocket
- 32 cards with suggested feelings words plus some bank cards for handwriting more words
