How Do I Feel?: ESL Lessons for Kids
How Do I Feel? by Amanda Matamala is a fun and simple ESL picture book designed to help young learners recognize, express, and talk about emotions while exploring a familiar setting-school.
Follow Jay as he gets ready for his first day of school. From feeling nervous while meeting his teacher, to being excited about the playground, hungry at lunchtime, and finally happy and tired when going home, children will see their own school experiences reflected in Jay's story.
With clear, repetitive sentence patterns ("I feel happy. I feel tired."), this book supports early English reading skills while teaching essential vocabulary about emotions. The colorful and engaging illustrations make learning fun, while the interactive "Game Time" activity at the end encourages kids to practice by matching emotions to pictures.
Perfect for:
ESL/EFL classrooms - teachers can introduce emotions vocabulary and sentence frames.
Parents at home - a simple way to talk about feelings with children.
Young readers - easy sight words and repetition build confidence.
How Do I Feel? is more than just an ESL lesson-it's a supportive tool to help children understand emotions, build social skills, and grow comfortable with expressing how they feel. Whether read at home, in class, or as a bedtime story, this book makes learning English joyful and relatable.
