Free Feelings Assessment | Year 5 Core | BookFlik
Supporting children in understanding their emotional landscape is a vital part of the primary curriculum. Our new resource, the Pshe feelings assessment year 5 core, provides a comprehensive tool designed to help pupils explore, identify, and manage their emotions effectively. This assessment has been carefully crafted to align with the UK National Curriculum requirements for Relationships and Health Education, ensuring that students develop the emotional literacy needed to navigate social situations with confidence and empathy.
Within this assessment, students will engage with relatable scenarios featuring our friendly BookFlik characters. For instance, Max the monkey encounters a maths challenge that makes him feel frustrated, while Pip the caterpillar experiences nervousness about a new project. Through these stories, children learn to label complex feelings, recognise the physical signs of different emotions, and apply healthy strategies for self-regulation. This Pshe feelings assessment year 5 core is perfect for gauging pupil progress at the end of a unit or as a baseline activity to inform future classroom discussions.
The resource is designed at the expected standard for Year 5, offering a balanced mix of recall questions, comprehension tasks, and application-based exercises. Teachers can use this material to identify which children may need extra support in emotional resilience or to spark whole-class conversations about mental wellbeing. Because this Pshe feelings assessment year 5 core focuses on core expectations, it is an ideal addition to any teacher’s toolkit, providing clear insights into how children perceive their own internal states.
Included in the download are 7 structured questions that encourage students to reflect on their personal coping mechanisms. By using this resource, you are helping your class build the vocabulary necessary to express themselves clearly and kindly. Whether used as a formal test or a guided group activity, these materials provide a warm and supportive way to foster emotional intelligence in your Year 5 classroom.
