These cards are used by the role play supervisors to cue the mediators as to what to do or say next. They are most helpful when used only when the mediators are stuck or when they are unable to proceed in the mediation process. 

Each set of feeling cards may be used in a game of charades. Choose a card and ask a student to demonstrate the feeling on the card. The other students will guess what the feeling is. This is an interactive, engaging way to teach about feelings.
