Auslan Feelings Display Board - Social Emotional Learning (SEL)

This resource is useful for teaching feelings/emotions in Auslan (Australian Sign Language). I have sorted the signs into four colours to suit both RULER's Mood Meter and Zones of Regulation as many schools utilise resources from these organisations as a part of a whole school approach to social and emotional learning.

To support building Auslan vocabulary several options are included to make velcro visual boards both with and without English labels.

Also included is a bonus "I am feeling.." check-in board in both English and Auslan grammar!
