After viewing a clip focused on feelings, call out an emotion shown in the episode. Have students freeze and make a face or body pose that matches that feeling, building emotional awareness and self-expression. Play a Tab Time song and have students create movements that match the rhythm, mood, or message of the music. Discuss how music can make us feel happy, calm, excited, or focused.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

InsideU is an award-winning social and emotional learning (SEL) web experience developed by the Renee Crown Wellness Institute at the University of Colorado Boulder. It uses themes, characters, and interactive storytelling inspired by Pixar's Inside Out to help children (especially elementary-aged students) explore their emotions, build emotional awareness, and practice healthy decision-making. The platform blends engaging multimedia with evidence-based SEL tools, making it both fun and educational for use in classrooms, after-school programs, or at home. InsideU has been recognized for excellence in design and academic impact, earning honors such as a Webby Award and a Good Design Award.

In the Classroom
Set up stations featuring different InsideU characters or emotional scenarios. Have students rotate through stations, identify the emotions the scenarios represent, and discuss what triggers those feelings and how the characters respond. Begin the day with a short InsideU clip or image. Students can write or draw how they are feeling and connect their emotions to the characters, helping normalize emotional awareness and build classroom community. Have students design their own "inside world" by inventing emotion characters, describing their roles, and explaining how they help the student make choices. Create class digital slideshows using Google Slides reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
