Students have been learning to identify feelings through a game this week.
We’ve been learning just how much we communicate through non-verbal clues – through facial expression or body language.
In this game, a student secretly chooses an emotion and then tries to represent it physically. Classmates have to guess what feeling their peer is acting out.
In playing this game, we’ve also been learning new French vocabulary such as “susceptible” (sensitive), “gêné” (embrassed), “coupable” (guilty), “fier” (proud), or “déçu” (disappointed).
We practice to read social clues to improve our emotional intelligence. When calmer and happier, learning comes easier!
