Our 5th and 6th grade pupils attended a workshop to learn how to be more patient, how to trust the others and how to manage the error and frustration. The activity consisted in walking round the playground in a row. All the children were blindfolded and they had to follow the leader instructions, who was the only child who could see. They had lots of fun feeling, at the same time, different emotions as fear, doubt, etc. After the activity they shared their experiences, feelings and thoughts and they made interesting reflections such as:
“I learnt to trust some children that I didn’t trust them before.”
“It is important to be patient to reach your aims.”
