I. Introduction:
This module focuses on different types of emotions and how they are
expressed. Moreover, it explains why it is important to understand your emotions
and those of others and the skills we use to manage and expressing emotions in
healthy way when emotional situations affect our behavior. And that's something
to feel good about!

II. Objective:
Explore one’s positive and negative emotions and how one expresses or
hides them.

III. Vocabulary List

To help you understand what exactly the concept of this module. Here are
the lists of terms for you to figure out.
Emotions – it is defined by Smith (1973) as a descriptive term referring to
variation in level of arousal, affective state or mood, expressive movements, and
attitudes. (Sanchez, Abad, and Jao 2012)
Attitude – is a result of a person’s thoughts, feelings, and emotions about another
person, object, idea, behavior, or situation based on his or her values and belief
system. (Santos, Ricardo R. 2016)
Behavior – the way in which one acts or conducts oneself, especially toward
others.
(Merriam-Webster Dictionary)

Positive emotions – are emotions that we typically find pleasurable to

experience. The Oxford Handbook of Positive Psychology defines them as
“pleasant or desirable situational responses… distinct from pleasurable sensation
and undifferentiated positive affect” ((Cohn & Fredrickson, 2009)
Negative emotions - are those that we typically do not find pleasurable to
experience. Negative emotions can be defined as “as an unpleasant or unhappy
emotion which is evoked in individuals to express a negative effect towards an
event or person” (Pam, 2013)

V. Learning Activities
ACTIVITY 1: Feeling Guy. All answers should be written in your journal

©2011 by Education World®. Users may reproduce this handout for educational purposes only. This handout
was adapted from School Volunteer Handbook: A Simple Guide for K-6 Teachers and Parents and is shared with
permission from authors Yael Calhoun and Elizabeth Q. Finlinson.

1. Name your feeling. Look at the list of feeling words. That's a lot of feelings you
can have. Is there a feeling you see that you felt yesterday or today?
Sometimes it takes practice to figure out how you feel. When you have identified
your feeling, write it in the heart of your Feeling Guy Sheet.

3
2. Draw your feeling face. Now draw a face on the Feeling Guy to match how you
felt inside. Does your face match how you felt inside?

3. Rank your feeling. On your Feeling Guy’s left hand, write the number 1, 2, 3,
4, or 5 to show how much you felt this way. For example, if you felt a little sad,
write the number 1. If it is the saddest you have ever felt, write the number 5. It
may help you to hold out your fingers as you decide.

4. Share the feeling. Think of someone you might want to share your feeling with.
Write down the name of the person in the Feeling Guy's right hand. You can
even share your feeling with your stuffed animal or pet. A lot of people feel
better after sharing their feelings.

5. Take responsible action for your feelings. Did you know that you can choose
how to respond to feelings? Remember to respond in a way that is kind to
yourself and others. Write or draw your idea.

Processing Questions:

1. What type of mood am I in right now?

2. What are the reasons for my current mood?
3. Despite the negatives, what positive aspects can I identify?
4. How might my current mood affect my decision-making and communication
style?
5. How do I want to face this challenge the next time it arises?
6. What else do I want to improve about myself?

ACTIVITY 2: Emotion, Action, and Interpretation

When you experience an emotion, a behavior usually comes with it. If

you are angry, you might fight or argue. If you are sad, you might withdraw from
your friends. Your body causes you to react to emotions in a specific way.
Doing the opposite action will help you to change your emotion. If you
typically start to yell when you are angry, try talking quietly and politely. If you
withdraw when you are sad, make a point to visit a friend next time you feel this
way.

 Emotion Action Interpretation

Angry Fight, yell, argue Talk quietly and behave politely

Sad Withdraw from friends Visit and communicate with friends

Check the Facts:

Maybe you can look back at your life and think of a few situations where
you overacted. Or you might notice that something once felt like a big deal when
it was unimportant. You can check the facts in the moment to help reduce the
intensity of these extreme emotions.
Ask yourself the following questions and write your answer in the
journal to check the facts:
1. What event triggered my emotions?
2. What interpretations or assumptions am I making about the event?
3. Do my emotion and its intensity match the facts of the situation? Or does it
just match my assumptions of the situations?

VI. DEEPENING

Emotions (feelings) are a normal and important part of our lives. Some
emotions are positive. Think of happiness, joy, interest, curiosity, excitement,
gratitude, love, and contentment. These positive emotions feel good. Negative
emotions — like sadness, anger, loneliness, jealousy, self-criticism, fear, or
rejection — can be difficult, even painful at times. That's especially true when we
feel a negative emotion too often, too strongly, or we dwell on it too long. Negative
emotions are impossible to avoid, though. Everyone feels them from time to time.
They may be difficult, but we can learn to handle them.

What are Positive Emotions?

Positive emotions are emotions that we typically find pleasurable to

experience. The Oxford Handbook of Positive Psychology defines them as
“pleasant or desirable situational responses… distinct from pleasurable
sensation and undifferentiated positive affect” or is it effect? (Cohn & Fredrickson,
2009). Basically, this definition is stating that positive emotions are pleasant
responses to our environment (or our own internal dialogue) that are more
complex and targeted than simple sensations.

5
 What are Negative Emotions?

On the other hand, negative emotions are those that we typically do

not find pleasurable to experience. Negative emotions can be defined as “as an
unpleasant or unhappy emotion which is evoked in individuals to express a
negative effect towards an event or person” (Pam, 2013). If an emotion
discourages and drags you down, then it is most likely a negative emotion.
