Ways to Smile: An Emotional Handbook for Teachers

This handbook is an intellectual output of the international project that is supported by Erasmus+ programme. We don´t teach emotions. We try to help the pupils express, recognise and manage them. Our schools need to make our pupils:Feel safe and curious, know they are unique with their own talents and opportunities,strengths and weakness,interact,communicate, value and be respectful with the others,feel they belong to the group, they are included, integrated in the school and in the society,want to learn and have hope and dreams, be able to manage conflicts looking for solutions and overcoming difficulties, feel they are loved and important. We think that we need to include socio-emotional skills to offer a complete plan for Teaching and Learning. Our pupils can grow up feeling happy and then they will smile: Our Schools Make Intelligence Links with Emotions.
