Alex (A)
E: Hi, Alex! How are you feeling today?
A: Hi, Emily. I’m feeling happy. I had a great weekend with my family.
E: That’s wonderful! I’m feeling excited because my birthday is coming up next week.
A: Oh, that’s awesome! Birthdays are always fun. I’m excited for you.
E: Thanks, Alex! But I also feel a little nervous because I’m going to have a big birthday party.
A: Don’t worry, Emily. I’m sure it’s going to be fantastic, and you won’t be nervous once it starts.
E: You’re right. I guess I just need to relax and have fun. What about you? Have you ever felt nervous?
A: Yes, I have, especially when I had to speak in front of the class. I felt so scared.
E: I understand that. Speaking in front of others can be tough. But it’s also a good way to learn and grow.
A: You’re absolutely right. And after I did it, I felt proud of myself.
E: That’s great, Alex! Feeling proud is such a good emotion.
A: Yes, it is. We all have different feelings, and it’s okay to express them.
E: I agree. It’s essential to talk about our feelings and share them with our friends.
A: Definitely, Emily. It’s a way to support and understand each other.
E: Thanks for talking with me, Alex. I’m feeling better now.

Characters:
Linda (L)
Sam (S)
L: Hi, Sam. You don’t look well. Are you feeling okay?
S: Hi, Linda. No, I’m not feeling well. I’m sick. I have a headache and a sore throat.
L: I’m sorry to hear that. When I’m sick, I usually feel very tired.
S: Yes, I’m tired too. Being sick makes me feel a little bit sad.
L: I understand. When I’m not feeling well, I often feel a bit down as well. What can I do to help you feel better?
S: Just having you here to talk to makes me feel a bit better, Linda. Thanks.
L: You’re welcome, Sam. I’m here to listen and support you.
S: Speaking of feelings, have you ever felt really angry about something?
L: Oh, yes, definitely. There have been times when I felt so angry because of something that happened.
S: What do you do when you feel angry?
L: I try to take deep breaths and calm down. It’s essential not to do something I might regret later.
S: That’s a good idea. I sometimes count to ten when I’m angry to help control my feelings.
L: Counting to ten is a great technique to calm down. It’s essential to manage our anger in a healthy way.
S: You’re right, Linda. It’s not good to stay angry for too long.

L: I’m glad to hear that, Sam. If you ever need to talk or if you’re feeling sick again, don’t hesitate to reach out.
