CALMING DOWN CORNER

• This is a technique used with children from 3 to 5 and it`s very simple.

• It consists in letting the children to go to this corner when they have something to express.

• Once there, children have two options; to choose one of the three faces that are glued in the corner or pick the bottle they need.

COLOURED FEELINGS• This activity is designed to do as a ritual exercise every day

• In infant school, normally, all children who come to class have to take their name card and move it to a special place.

• What children have to do is: select a colour when they arrive to school and put the sticker they selected near to their card.

HAPPY SAD ANGRY

MESSAGE CARDS

• This practice is designed to be used from third of primary on

• For that, each student and the teacher also, will have two types of cards. Some will be red and the others any colour we prefer.

• Red cards will be used to express negative feelings or things that we didn’t like and the others can be used to express whatever we want

FEELING FACES

• This is an exercise to work feeling expressions in Primary school.

• For that, we are going to use expression faces and it is necessary for each child to have the three faces in his/her desk.

• They will have to value their feeling three times per day (during the morning, after the break and after lunch).

NUMBERING FEELINGS

• This is a method created by Steve Reifmand

• Children express how they feel using numbers from one to ten (one being not good and ten being great)

• For this exercise, it is interesting all the children to be sitting in a circle.

 Ordu gozoakordu garratzakdenetik du bizitzak.Baina gaur tori loreaketa utzi arantzak

Bizitza, diote,Lau egun besterik ez direla

Eta nik diot,Lautik hirutan euria izaten dela

Ez zaitzala aterkirik gabe harrapatu bizitzak.

Bestela….
