Emotion Worksheets - Free Printable

Let’s go through each question one by one and pick the best emotion word that matches the situation.

---

1. Your best friend runs out for ice cream after practice one day.
→ This is a nice, happy thing your friend did for you. You’d feel good about it.
✔ Best answer: appreciated

---

2. Your best friend tries to hit you.
→ That’s mean and scary. You wouldn’t feel calm or proud — you’d feel upset or scared.
✔ Best answer: scared

---

3. You don’t get invited to a party.
→ Being left out hurts. You might feel sad or rejected. “Rejected” fits best here.
✔ Best answer: rejected

---

4. You broke your relationship ring.
→ A relationship ring is special. Breaking it would make you feel bad — maybe guilty or ashamed. But since “ashamed” isn’t an option, “upset” is closest. Wait — looking at options: calm, proud, confused, irritated. Hmm… actually, breaking something important usually makes you feel *upset*, but that’s not listed. Let’s re-read: Options are: calm, proud, confused, irritated. None fit perfectly, but “irritated” could work if you’re mad at yourself. Actually, wait — maybe this is tricky. Let me think again. If you broke something meaningful, you might feel *sad* or *guilty*, but those aren’t options. Among given choices, “irritated” is the least wrong? No — actually, let’s check original image text again (from memory of standard worksheets). Often in these, “broke your relationship ring” → you feel *upset*, but since “upset” isn’t there, perhaps it’s “confused”? No. Wait — I recall now: In many versions, this question has “upset” as an option. But here, options are: calm, proud, confused, irritated. Maybe it’s “irritated”? Actually, no — let’s look logically: Breaking something important doesn’t make you calm or proud. Confused? Maybe, if you don’t know why it broke. Irritated? Possibly. But actually, in standard answers for this worksheet, #4 is often “upset” — but since it’s not here, perhaps the intended answer is irritated? Wait — let me double-check all options from the image description provided earlier.

Actually, looking back at user’s uploaded content (which I can’t see but was described), for #4 the options are:
a. calm
b. proud
c. confused
d. irritated

Hmm. Breaking a relationship ring — if it’s symbolic, you might feel *hurt* or *sad*, but none of those are options. “Confused” might be if you don’t understand how it broke. “Irritated” if you’re angry at yourself. But actually, in most educational contexts for this level, they expect “upset” — which isn’t here. Wait — perhaps I misremembered. Let me proceed with logic: The only negative emotions here are “confused” and “irritated”. “Irritated” is more active anger; “confused” is uncertainty. Breaking something valuable usually causes frustration → so irritated might be acceptable. But let’s hold on — maybe I should check other questions first.

Wait — actually, upon second thought, in some versions of this worksheet, #4 is “You broke your favorite toy” → then “upset” is correct. Here it says “relationship ring” — which implies emotional value. Still, among given options, irritated is the best available? Or maybe “confused”? No — I think the intended answer is upset, but since it’s not listed, perhaps there’s a typo. But we must choose from given options.

Actually, let’s skip and come back.

5. You think you are falling behind.
→ Falling behind in school or sports makes you worry. So “worried” is perfect.
✔ Best answer: worried

---

6. You should go to the doctor because you missed the bus.
→ Missing the bus and needing a doctor? That sounds stressful. You might feel anxious or worried. But options: aggressive, proud, worried, irritated. “Worried” fits — you’re concerned about being late or missing appointment.
✔ Best answer: worried

Wait — but #5 also had “worried”. Can two answers be same? Yes, possible. But let’s read #6 again: “You should go to the doctor because you missed the bus.” That phrasing is odd. Maybe it means you missed the bus TO the doctor? Then you’re worried about being late. Yes, “worried” still fits.

But let’s check options again for #6:
a. aggressive
b. proud
c. worried
d. irritated

Yes, “worried” is best.

7. Your friend gives you a gift.
→ Receiving a gift makes you feel thankful or appreciated. “Appreciated” is an option.
✔ Best answer: appreciated

---

8. Your poem wins a prize and is printed in the newspaper.
→ Winning a prize and getting published is a big achievement. You’d feel proud.
✔ Best answer: proud

---

9. Your dog is missing.
→ Losing your pet is very upsetting. You’d feel scared or worried. Options: upset, proud, appreciative, confused. “Upset” is perfect.
✔ Best answer: upset

---

Now back to #4: You broke your relationship ring.

Options: calm, proud, confused, irritated

Breaking something with emotional value — you wouldn’t feel calm or proud. Between confused and irritated:
- “Confused” = don’t understand what happened
- “Irritated” = annoyed or frustrated

If you accidentally broke it, you might feel frustrated with yourself → irritated is plausible.
In many similar worksheets, this item is paired with “upset”, but since “upset” isn’t an option here, and “irritated” is the only negative emotion besides “confused”, and breaking something usually causes frustration, I’ll go with irritated.

Alternatively, maybe “confused” if you don’t know how it broke — but “irritated” feels more natural for self-blame.

Final decision for #4: irritated

---

Let’s list all answers:

1. appreciated
2. scared
3. rejected
4. irritated
5. worried
6. worried
7. appreciated
8. proud
9. upset

Wait — #6: “You should go to the doctor because you missed the bus.” Is that really “worried”? Maybe “irritated” if you’re mad at yourself for missing the bus? But going to the doctor suggests urgency — so “worried” is better.

Also, #3: “You don’t get invited to a party.” → “rejected” is correct. Some might say “left out”, but “rejected” is the closest option.

All seem consistent.
