EW Library
The nature of the Emotion Works ‘spiral’ curriculum is to revisit the key language and cog concepts with your learners over time using different teaching stimuli and a variety of resources.
This is where our EW Library comes in. In this area of the website you’ll find our ever-expanding library of Digital Resources and Practice Ideas, along with our archive of previous programmes..
You will also find our Specialist Training for work with learners with Severe & Complex needs.
NB. If this is your first time browsing Emotion Works (EW), we recommend working through the Nursery & Early Years: Emotion Works Foundations content first as it will introduce you to EW practice in a very structured way, highlighting the resources and first practice ideas you’ll need for working with young children in ELC settings.

SPECIALIST ASN PROGRAMME
Severe Learning Disabilities & Complex Needs
If your work involves supporting learners with no or very little language and at a ‘very early’ level of learning we’re sure you’ll find the training and resource materials provided on our specialist ASN page highly relevant and extremely valuable.
For an overview of our ASN support more generally we now have an ASN Launchpad which will signpost you to the right Emotion Works programme to suit your Learner’s Needs.
LITERACY PROGRAMME
Nursery | Primary | S1/2
This is our archived Literacy Programme from the 2021-22 school session.
At a time when concerns surrounding the impact of the pandemic on children’s language, communication and learning generally as well as on their mental health and emotional wellbeing, the #ewLiteracy Programme focused on expanding emotional vocabulary, and provided lots of examples for reading and writing activities to help develop emotional literacy and promote emotional wellbeing.
LITERACY PADLETS
Welcome to our collection of Padlets with lots of ideas to help you deliver the Emotion Works programme using a Literacy stimulus.
Children’s literature is full of #cogtastic opportunities for Emotion Works teaching. In this set of Padlets we’ve pulled together a range of literacy stimuli that can be used to help teach the different aspects of the Emotion Works programme.
