Emotions and Feelings Social Story App

When I was exploring itunes for my presentation, I came across this app.  Although it didn't fit in the skills area I was looking for at the time, I thought it looked really good so I decided to include it in my blog.  It is called Emotions and Feelings Social Story and costs 2.99.  It is available for the iphone, itouch and ipad.

This app teaches children about emotions and feelings through the use of a social story.  It shows through the use of visuals, sound and simple text, the different feelings that a person might feel in the run of a day.  It focuses on teaching children when and why a person might show emotion and the causes for it.  Someday I hope to be able to try this out with one of my  students.

  1. Do you know if there is a library/catalog of the types of emotions and feelings addressed within the app? If you are not sure, I'll research on my own time.

    1. Sorry Sherry, I am not sure and I don't think it was in the description.
