The drawing of elementary school students revealing feelings and emotions: an issue discussed by emotional intelligence

Abstract

Emotions are associated with significant events that determine the individual's reactions to certain situations. They constitute the basis for the intellectual and sociocultural development of the individual, and the drawing reflects them, develops skills and, when used with colors, demonstrates the feelings at the time of the action, and can be applied to children, youth and adults. Its use provides instruments for the integral development of the person, allowing to learn to deal with emotions, life and development processes. Objective was to identify through drawings, feelings and emotions related to the learning process of the primary school student. Methodology was based on bibliographic and field research, where the drawings produced by children in the 2nd and 3rd year of primary school and presenting good oral communication were analyzed. Exclusion criteria: not being a student of the selected schools, presenting mental problems that contaminate the research, and students carrying psychic problems that make oral communication impossible. In this study, the aim has been to improve the psycho-pedagogical processes that involve school learning through the study of designs and emotional intelligence. Result: The analysis of drawings in school-age children is considered important, in order to understand situations experienced by students inside and outside the school, their fears, their anguish and anger, in addition to all kinds of emotions that may interfere with the teaching learning process.
