Character Emotions worksheet from SplashLearn, where students match character actions to appropriate emotions.

Here’s the correct matching of Character Actions with their appropriate Emotions, along with explanations for each:

---

✔ 1. Misty breathed a sigh of relief when she finally found her book in her bag.

→ d) relieved
Explanation: A “sigh of relief” is a classic physical expression of relief — the feeling of being freed from worry or stress. Misty was likely anxious before finding her book, and now that it’s found, she feels relieved.

---

✔ 2. Kim started jumping up and down and dancing when she saw her pet dog for the first time.

→ e) delighted
Explanation: Jumping and dancing are energetic, joyful reactions. Seeing a beloved pet (especially for the first time) would bring happiness and excitement — best described as “delighted.”

*(Note: The worksheet lists “e) delighted” twice — likely a typo. The second “e)” should probably be “f) confused” or similar. But since only one “e)” is needed here, we’ll use it for this match.)*

✔ 3. John stared at the chessboard with a furrowed forehead.

→ f) confused *(assuming the second “e)” is meant to be “f) confused”)*
Explanation: A “furrowed forehead” suggests deep thought, puzzlement, or confusion — especially in a context like chess, where strategy is involved. He’s likely trying to figure out his next move.

---

✔ 4. He started sobbing when his best friend moved to a new neighborhood.

→ b) sorrowful
Explanation: Sobbing is a strong emotional reaction to sadness or loss. Losing a close friend through moving away causes grief — hence, “sorrowful.”

---

✔ 5. When Trevor’s mom saw the mess, she stormed out of the room.

→ c) angry
Explanation: “Stormed out” implies sudden, forceful movement fueled by anger. A messy room likely upset her, triggering an angry reaction.

---

✔ 6. Lee couldn’t sit still as he knew he was late for his exams.

→ a) anxious
Explanation: Inability to sit still, especially due to being late for something important like exams, reflects nervousness, worry, or anxiety about consequences.

## 📋 Final Answer Key:

| Character Action | Emotion |
|------------------|----------------|
| 1 | d) relieved |
| 2 | e) delighted |
| 3 | f) confused* |
| 4 | b) sorrowful |
| 5 | c) angry |
| 6 | a) anxious |

> *Note: Since the worksheet mistakenly lists two "e)" options, we’ve assumed the second one was intended to be "f) confused". If you must stick strictly to the printed letters, you might need to write “confused” next to action #3 manually, as it doesn't have a unique letter assigned.
