Mental Health Check-In is a free printable worksheet with an answer key for students in Grades 9–12. It guides learners through a seven-item personal reflection using one drawing prompt, four multiple-select check-in questions, and two open-ended responses. Students represent their current emotional state, reflect on the emotional support they feel they have at school, identify a color that matches how they feel, consider recent sleep, and describe positive, difficult, or worrying experiences. This worksheet gives teachers a structured way to invite emotional self-awareness without requiring students to respond in only one format. The drawing prompt and color selection provide nonverbal entry points, while the written prompts encourage students to name recent experiences and concerns in their own words. Use it for a private check-in, advisory activity, beginning-of-week reflection, or conversation starter, with students sharing only what they are comfortable discussing.

This Grade 9–12 worksheet builds emotional self-awareness through a seven-item check-in: one drawing prompt, four multiple-select questions, and two open-ended reflections. Students represent how they feel, consider perceived emotional support at school and recent sleep, and identify the best and hardest parts of the past week, including anything that may be worrying them.
Introduce the Mental Health Check-In as a personal reflection rather than a test, and explain that students can use the drawing, color, and written prompts to communicate in different ways. After completion, invite voluntary discussion about how a drawing or color can express an emotional state and how the best and hardest parts of the past week may affect today’s feelings; do not require students to disclose private responses.
Students may treat the drawing and color prompts as tasks with a single correct answer, or select responses based on what they think an adult wants to see rather than on their own experience. They may also give very brief answers to the two open-ended prompts or skip the question about worries; remind them that the check-in is for honest reflection and that personal responses should be handled respectfully.
Wayground provides this Mental Health Check-In as both a printable PDF and a digital quiz, and it includes a complete answer key.
