Emotional states that favor children's learning.

Emotions have a great importance in the learning of children and of every human being, so that a memory lasted over time is necessary to be associated with an emotion. The learning inside and outside a classroom associated with feelings, whether negative or positive, will remain in our memory, because we are constantly learning, but with the passage of time only the most significant will last and the Emotionality is the main cause of this happening.

Some children tend to learn more easily due to the need to learn and the emotional state that presents, a fundamental part that will help assimilate all the new information.

Learning in schools?

Most of the time you spend it inside an educational institution, where you live a lot of emotions both positive and negative, but that you are forming as a person. We will never forget if we were ever annoyed by some colleagues at the same time we will not forget the teachers who put so much effort into teaching us or those we thought did not want to give us a good grade.

Positive environments will predispose to study in a better way, and will make knowledge last much longer in our mind, while aggressive or stressful space will hinder the concentration of any person. One of the main objectives of education must be to create emotionally positive and collaborative educational environments where children foster a teaching process associated with joy and happiness. For this reason it is essential to make the students participate in the classes, motivate them with fun activities, and arouse their curiosity about topics that they did not know about.

Educational environments should be characterized by showing joy and laughter day after day, as well as combating stress and negative emotional states. Laughing is one of the best ways to promote positive interaction with others, since it is a universal language that strengthens affective ties and, together, has many other benefits.

Emotional states that favor children's learning.

Curiosity: It is fundamental to awaken the curiosity of children when it comes to teaching, since a child who is not motivated or willing to learn a subject, will hardly achieve it. Interest and curiosity must be encouraged.

Surprise: A surprised child maintains alert and active attention, with the consequence that the information that arrives, is installed efficiently in his memory. Every memory that surprised the child and marks it in an important way will be a memory that lasted in time, from a game, a birthday, something that marked his attention.

Safety: In a safe place, children are able to function with total comfort expressing their abilities, and with a more receptive mentality. On the other hand, if they are afraid, children will feel sad, and unmotivated, storing only negative memories.

Happiness: The brain is more receptive and learns much more if a child is full of positive thoughts and joy. That's why children learn much better playing.

Emotional states that do not favor learning.

In the same way that there are states of mind that favor the concentration and learning of the child or of a person in general, there are also mental states that have a contrary reaction, which limits development and evolution.

• Boredom.
• The fear.
• Anger.
• The frustration.

It is normal for a child who has this type of emotion to feel blocked and not be able to maintain any kind of knowledge in their memory, because they are going through difficult and counterproductive times for their growth. It is important for adults to realize that a child has some of these emotions and how they can work to eliminate them. The activities must be carried out to help fight fear and anger, reinforcing creativity and imagination, seeking to improve the ability to learn.

People are emotional, and it is difficult for us to act by separating emotion from the activities we do. But when we grow we learn to work it in a way that does not interfere greatly with our activity. When we talk about children it is more complicated due to the innocence that they have, that is why we must work in that they are happy children, surrounded by love, in a healthy environment that motivates them to learn and grow.
