Make a daily feelings check-in part of your classroom routine with this fall-themed interactive PowerPoint. Students identify how they feel and can share their response with a caring adult, supporting conversation about emotions in a warm, seasonal format.

What's included

• A 19-slide PowerPoint with directions for using the presentation in slideshow mode.
• A calendar-themed check-in prompt and a “Today I feel” slide.
• Fall illustrations and labeled emotion visuals, including sad, scared, shocked, shy, and proud.
• Slides that allow students to drag and drop clipart or type text, as described in the directions.

How to use it

Use the slides as a brief daily routine, morning meeting prompt, or individual check-in. Move through the presentation and follow each slide's prompt. Students can select or move visual elements where available, and type a response on slides that provide text entry. The resource is designed for digital use in slideshow mode; the file does not describe a printable version.

Skills and classroom fit

This feelings check-in supports emotion identification and gives students a structured opportunity to communicate how they are feeling. It may suit early elementary classrooms and other settings where learners benefit from visual prompts and adult-supported emotional conversations. Use responses as a starting point for a supportive conversation rather than as a measure of a student's wellbeing.

Before you use it

Open the PowerPoint and test the drag-and-drop and typing features in your intended presentation software. The visible emotion choices are examples, so provide another way for students to express a feeling if none of them fits. The fall artwork makes this presentation especially fitting for an autumn classroom routine.
