832 Feelings, emotions English ESL worksheets pdf & doc - Free Printable

This Feelings Quiz is a fun and engaging activity designed to help children identify and understand different emotions by matching cartoon brains with expressive faces to the correct feeling words. Each brain has a unique facial expression and body language that reflects a specific emotion, and the task is to select the most appropriate word from the given options.

Let’s go through each of the 16 brain characters one by one and determine the correct feeling based on their expressions and cues:

---

1. Yellow brain with closed eyes, smiling, arms crossed

- Face: Smiling, relaxed
- Body: Calm posture
- ✔ Peaceful

> ✔️ Peaceful

---

2. Orange brain with question marks above head, confused look

- Face: Eyes wide, eyebrows raised, mouth slightly open
- Cues: Question marks above head
- ✔ Confused

> ✔️ Confused

---

3. Purple brain with squinted eyes, frowning, lines around face

- Face: Frowning, eyes narrowed
- Cues: Lines suggesting irritation or frustration
- ✔ Irritated

> ✔️ Irritated

---

4. Yellow brain with worried brow, drooping mouth, blue spot (tear?)

- Face: Frowning, sad eyes
- Cues: Slight tear-like dot, downturned mouth
- ✔ Worried

> ✔️ Worried

---

5. Orange brain with wide eyes, open mouth, hands up

- Face: Fearful expression
- Cues: Open mouth, wide eyes, arms raised in alarm
- ✔ Scared

> ✔️ Scared

---

6. Yellow brain with sweat drops, straight line mouth, tense eyes

- Face: Nervous expression
- Cues: Sweat drops, stiff posture
- ✔ Nervous

> ✔️ Nervous

---

7. Green brain with closed eyes, smiling, arms crossed confidently

- Face: Peaceful smile
- Cues: Confident posture, calm
- ✔ Confident

> ✔️ Confident

---

8. Blue brain with angry eyes, furrowed brows, arms crossed

- Face: Angry expression
- Cues: Glaring eyes, frown, aggressive stance
- ✔ Jealous? Wait — but it's more like Angry. However, "Jealous" is listed.
- But jealousy often involves envy, not anger alone.
- Still, Jealous is an option, but Angry isn’t listed here.
- The only options are: Jealous, Silly, Bored → none really fit perfectly.

Wait! Let’s recheck:
- This brain has angry features, but "Angry" is not an option here.
- Options: Jealous, Silly, Bored → none match well.

But looking again: the expression is clearly angry, but "Angry" isn't among the choices. So maybe this is a mistake?

Wait — no, let's double-check the image. Actually, the third row, fourth column shows:
- Brain: Angry-looking
- Options: Jealous, Silly, Bored

Hmm. That doesn’t make sense. But perhaps "Jealous" is meant to be the answer if there’s envy implied? But the expression is more angry than jealous.

Alternatively, maybe "Silly"? No — not at all.

Wait — this might be a mislabeling in the quiz. But since we must pick from the given options, and "Jealous" is the closest emotional state involving tension and anger, perhaps that's intended.

But actually, let’s reconsider: "Angry" is missing. This could be an error in the quiz design.

But let’s move on and come back.

Wait — no, I think I made a mistake. Let's check the actual brain.

Actually, the fourth brain in the third row is blue, angry face, but "Angry" is not an option — the options are:
- Jealous
- Silly
- Bored

That seems off. But let’s keep going and see if any other clues help.

Wait — perhaps it's "Jealous" because jealousy can manifest as anger. But it's a stretch.

Alternatively, maybe the brain is supposed to represent "Angry", but it’s not listed. So perhaps the quiz has an error.

But let's assume the options are correct and choose the best fit.

→ Jealous might be the intended answer if the context implies envy.

But honestly, this looks more like Angry.

But since "Angry" isn't an option, and "Jealous" is, and jealousy often includes anger, maybe that’s it.

But let’s keep going.

9. Purple brain with teary eye, downcast, arms crossed

- Face: Sad, crying
- Cues: Tear, downturned mouth
- ✔ Sad

> ✔️ Sad

---

10. Blue brain with squinted eyes, open mouth yelling

- Face: Yelling, angry
- Cues: Anger, red face, intense expression
- ✔ Angry

> ✔️ Angry

---

11. Yellow brain with blushing cheeks, neutral mouth, slight frown

- Face: Blushing, subtle discomfort
- Cues: Rosy cheeks, awkward expression
- ✔ Embarrassed

> ✔️ Embarrassed

---

12. Orange brain with smug grin, confident pose

- Face: Smirking, satisfied
- Cues: Raised eyebrows, smirk
- ✔ Hopeful? Or Proud? But Hopeful is listed.

Wait — options: Sick, Nervous, Hopeful

The expression is confident, not sick or nervous.

But "Hopeful" is possible — someone who feels hopeful might have a confident look.

But "Proud" would be better, but it's not listed.

So among Sick, Nervous, Hopeful, the best fit is Hopeful

> ✔️ Hopeful

---

13. Blue brain with open mouth, wide eyes, arms raised

- Face: Surprised
- Cues: Mouth open, eyes wide, shocked
- ✔ Surprised

> ✔️ Surprised

---

14. Green brain with big smile, arms raised

- Face: Happy, joyful
- Cues: Big smile, energetic pose
- ✔ Proud

> ✔️ Proud

---

15. Purple brain with frowning, slumped shoulders

- Face: Downcast, sad
- Cues: Slump, frown
- ✔ Disappointed

> ✔️ Disappointed

---

16. Red brain with angry eyes, clenched teeth, aggressive stance

- Face: Very angry
- Cues: Red color, furrowed brows, angry eyes
- ✔ Angry

> ✔️ Angry

---

Now let’s go back to #8 — the blue brain with angry face, options: Jealous, Silly, Bored

We now know "Angry" is not an option, but it's clearly angry.

But wait — perhaps I misread the row.

Let’s list them properly in order:

Row 1:

1. Peaceful ✔
2. Confused ✔
3. Irritated ✔
4. Worried ✔

Row 2:

5. Scared ✔
6. Nervous ✔
7. Confident ✔
8. ??? — Blue brain, angry face, options: Jealous, Silly, Bored

But "Angry" is not listed — so this is likely a flaw in the quiz.

But perhaps "Jealous" is the intended answer? If the brain is showing resentment or envy, then yes.

But the expression is anger, not jealousy.

Alternatively, maybe the color or style suggests something else.

Wait — perhaps it’s "Jealous" because jealousy often includes anger.

But without more context, it's ambiguous.

But let’s look at the options: only Jealous makes sense emotionally — Silly and Bored don’t fit.

So even though it’s angry, "Jealous" might be the intended answer if the context is about envy.

But "Angry" should be an option.

Alternatively, maybe the brain is supposed to represent "Jealous".

Given the lack of "Angry", and the presence of "Jealous", we’ll go with:

> ✘ Jealous (best available option)

But it's a weak fit.

Wait — let’s check #10 again: that one is clearly angry, and the options are Tired, Angry, Happy — so Angry is available.

But #8 has Jealous, Silly, Bored — no "Angry".

So perhaps #8 is not angry, but jealous?

Let’s re-express:

- #8 brain: Blue, furrowed brows, angry eyes, arms crossed — typical anger expression.

But since "Angry" is not an option, and "Jealous" is, maybe it's a typo.

But for now, we'll assume the quiz expects "Jealous" for that one.

Explanation:

This quiz helps children develop emotional literacy by associating facial expressions and body language with feelings. It teaches them to recognize emotions in others and themselves, which is key for mental health and social skills.

Some answers may be subjective, especially when multiple emotions are possible. For example, a person can be both worried and sad, but the quiz asks for one primary emotion.

In cases where the correct emotion isn't listed (like #8), it highlights the importance of accurate labeling in educational tools.

✔ Tip for educators: Use this quiz as a discussion starter — ask kids why they chose certain answers, helping them reflect on their own feelings.
