What You'll Learn

🧠 Happy, sad, angry, scared, excited, confused, proud, embarrassed. You have MANY feelings, and they're all okay! The first step in emotional thinking is NAMING what you feel. Here's how to do it: 1. Look carefully at the problem. What do you see? 2. Think about what you already know. Does this remind you of something? 3. Try an answer! It's totally okay to be wrong — that's how we learn. 4. Check: did it work? If not, try something else! You're building your thinking muscles. The more you practice, the stronger they get!
