Emotion Matcher

In this worksheet, students read short everyday scenarios and determine which emotional reaction best fits each situation. They must match each numbered event with one of the listed emotional responses, reinforcing their ability to interpret feelings based on context clues. The activity encourages students to think critically about how people typically react in real-life situations, helping them build emotional awareness and social-emotional understanding. By analyzing cause-and-effect relationships between events and feelings, students strengthen comprehension and inferencing skills. This worksheet also supports vocabulary development by helping students differentiate between similar emotions.
