Emotions and communicative acts from the dramatization of everyday situations. An educational intervention proposal in Primary Education

Abstract

Nowadays the socio-educational context demands from teachers a committed and coherent intervention to promote emotional skills and competences. It is necessary to complement the academic and quantifiable dimension with other knowledge that has overcome school barriers and has an important role in the capacities and development of students. The relations between the triad: emotion, thought and action, control every moment of our daily life. This trio can be disturbed by external stimuli, which sometimes cannot be solved in a positive way. This mismanagement is due to the increasing “emotional illiteracy” that makes us act in an impulsive and thoughtless manner.

This paper shows an educational proposal to contribute to the development of competences and skills in the Primary Education classroom, based on dialogue, cooperation and dramatic act as learning tools, emphasizing the benefits that this resource has to develop inclusive spaces where students can express themselves freely. This project has an open character, its realisation will be determined by the context and its implementation in the classroom. This paper concludes the convenience of emotional projects and their implementation in educational institutions.
