Feelings colour by code for Reception to Year 3 (EYFS, KS1 and KS2): children read a feeling word or a short sentence, find the feeling in the colour key and colour the space, building emotions vocabulary and early reading at the same time.
These PSHE colouring pages come in two reading levels, so younger children work with single feeling words while older pupils read short sentences. A gentle note reminds children that the colours are a game code, not rules about emotions: all feelings are welcome.
