Interactive Feelings & Emotions Vocabulary Game | Powerpoint

If you're looking for an engaging way to practise social and emotional learning vocabulary with your students, this digital activity is a great addition to your lessons.

This game focuses on helping students connect written words with facial expressions and visual context clues. On each slide, students read a target emotion or physical state (such as "hungry," "happy," or "angry") and must scan the scene to find the matching character. For example, as shown in the preview, if the word is "hungry," students look for the monster thinking about cheese. This adds an element of critical thinking and visual discrimination to a standard reading lesson.

How to use it:

It is designed to be completely zero-prep and tech-friendly. Simply open the file in Microsoft PowerPoint and. The game is fully interactive within PowerPoint, so you don’t need an internet connection or a specific login to play.

Educational Value:

• Active Learning: instead of passively looking at a screen, students have to actively scan the scene, process the text, and make a decision. This active approach strengthens the connection between the written word and its meaning.

• Modern Aesthetics: Students today are used to high-quality video games and movies. Old-fashioned clip art may seem irrelevant to them. These 3D characters look modern and appealing, capturing students' attention immediately and keeping them focused on the task.

• Reliability: As it runs on PowerPoint, you don't need to worry about slow school internet or forgotten passwords. It works every time, whether you are in a high-tech classroom or just using a single laptop.

The 3D artwork is bright and clear without being overly "babyish," making it suitable for a wide range of early learners.
