Fascinating Fact:

Naming an emotion can make it easier to manage, because you understand what is happening inside you.

In PSHE Personal Education, pupils learn that emotions are normal signals, not something to be ashamed of. This topic helps you recognise feelings, understand what can set them off, and practise safe, respectful ways to respond.

  • Emotion: A feeling inside you, such as happiness, worry, anger, or excitement.
  • Trigger: Something that starts a strong feeling, like a comment, a change, or a problem.
  • Coping strategy: A helpful action that calms you down, such as breathing slowly or talking to a trusted adult.
How can I calm down when I feel really angry?

To calm down when you feel angry, pause and breathe slowly, step away if it is safe, and use a calm phrase like “I need a minute.” Talk to a trusted adult if you need support.

What is a trigger in emotions for kids?

A trigger is something that makes a strong emotion start quickly. Triggers can be words, events, stress, tiredness, or feeling left out, and they can be different for different people.

Why do I feel upset for no reason?

You can feel upset even if you cannot name one clear reason, because your body and brain react to things like tiredness, hunger, stress, or small worries building up. Talking it through can help.
