Yesterday, during the test, I was nervous. When I saw my grade, I was surprised! My parents were proud of me. Para contar cómo nos sentimos en el pasado usamos el verbo to be en pasado: was y were. En este proyecto crearás un Emotional Dictionary (diccionario emocional) para reconocer y regular las emociones.
En tu libro: este proyecto está en las páginas 122 a 127 de Uérakua anapu uantakua. Projects and Readings. First Grade (SEP).
De qué trata el proyecto
Las emociones, los sentimientos y los estados de ánimo determinan cómo nos relacionamos y cómo nos vemos. Cada persona los expresa a su manera, con mucha influencia de la familia, las costumbres y la cultura: en México es común saludar de beso, abrazar o dar palmadas en la espalda; en otras culturas esas muestras de afecto son poco comunes.
Expresar las emociones crea vínculos sanos y empáticos, pero también hay que aprender a regular su intensidad al tomar decisiones y comunicarnos.
El proyecto incluye:
- La dinámica Identifying the Emotions of Others: cada quien lleva una emoción escrita en la espalda y los demás se la representan con mímica hasta que la adivina.
- Entrevistas a la familia: ¿qué emociones se expresan más?, ¿qué está permitido expresar?, ¿hay diferencias entre hombres y mujeres?
- Una encuesta escolar y fichas de cada emoción: qué es, cómo se expresa y cómo se regula en la convivencia, revisando si hay estereotipos de género.
- El Emotional Dictionary, con las fichas en orden alfabético, presentado en un evento escolar.

1. ¿Qué diferencia hay entre una emoción y un estado de ánimo?
Una emoción es una reacción intensa y breve ante algo que pasa (miedo, alegría, enojo); un estado de ánimo es más leve y dura más tiempo (estar de buen o mal humor todo el día). Los sentimientos son la forma en que vivimos y pensamos esas emociones de manera más duradera.
