介绍

这个活动将帮助孩子们识别嫉妒的情绪，并学习如何为他人的好运感恩。

主题

嫉妒、感恩

材料

一个带盖的大盒子

为每个孩子准备的纸杯蛋糕或糖果

时间

约12分钟

课前准备

课前，找一个带盖的大盒子，将甜点放在里面。可以是单独包装的蛋糕或糖果，也可以是自制的纸杯蛋糕。甜点需要是孩子们会感到兴奋的东西。

说明

1.做

1）让孩子们坐在你面前，一个一个轮流上来查看盒子里的东西。

2）孩子们不能从盒子里拿东西，也不能提前告诉别人盒子里有什么。

3）在每个孩子看过之后，讨论嫉妒的感受，并分享为他人的好运感到高兴的重要性。

2.说

今天我们要认识“嫉妒”这种情绪。很多时候，我们会感到嫉妒，但我们不知道该怎么处理这种感觉。现在，我们要做一个小实验，帮助我们识别嫉妒的情绪，并练习如何将这种感觉转变为感恩的心情。

我会叫一个同学上来，偷偷看一眼这个盒子里的东西。不要从盒子里拿任何东西，也不要说话，不要告诉别人盒子里有什么，要保守秘密。好了，我要选那些安静坐好的孩子。

（等孩子们安静下来后，叫第一个孩子的名字，让他/她上来。）

记住，(孩子的名字)，不要说盒子里有什么哦。把你的手背在身后，这样就不会被诱惑了。看到让你兴奋的东西时，只需要微笑，然后回到座位上。

（当孩子回到座位后，问其他孩子以下问题：）

谁因为自己没有被选中看盒子而感到有点难过？如果是，请举手。（等待孩子们举手。）

这可能就是嫉妒的感觉。与其感到难过或嫉妒，我们应该为(孩子的名字)感到高兴，因为他/她安静坐好，遵守了规则。你们中的许多人也做得很好，但(孩子的名字)被第一个选中，而你们的机会很快也会到来。让我们为(孩子的名字)鼓掌，表示我们为他/她感到高兴吧。

现在，我会再选一个同学。

（叫第二个孩子的名字，重复这个过程。在每个孩子看过盒子后，询问其他孩子是否感到难过或嫉妒，然后为被选中的孩子鼓掌。）

现在，每个人都看过盒子里的东西了，让我们讨论一下为朋友感到高兴时的表现吧。举手告诉我，当别人得到了特别的东西时，你是否学会了为他们感到高兴。这真棒！在生活中，总会有你没有被选中的时候，所以我们需要练习为别人感到高兴，而不是生气、难过或嫉妒。你们都做得非常好，所以我觉得是时候把盒子里的东西分发给大家了。

（将甜点分发给每个孩子，可以让他们在课堂上吃，或者带回家。）

Practice Makes Perfect

This activity will help children recognize the feeling of jealousy, and learn how to be thankful for the good fortune of others. By Kristy Thronton

TOPICS:

Jealousy, Thankfulness

MATERIALS:

Large box with a lid

Cupcakes or candy for each child

DURATION:

Approximately 12 minutes

PREPARATION:

Before class, find a large box with a lid and place treats inside. Individually wrapped cakes or candies, or homemade cupcakes can all work well. The treats need to be something the children will be excited to receive.

WHAT YOU WILL DO:

You will have the children sit in front of you and come up one at a time to look inside the box. The children cannot take anything from the box and need to keep the contents a secret until the end. After each child has a turn, you will talk about jealousy and share the importance of being happy for the good fortune of others.

WHAT YOU WILL SAY:

Today we are going to recognize the feeling of jealousy. Many times, we feel jealous, but we do not know what to do when we feel that way. We are going to do a little experiment to help us recognize the feeling of jealousy, and practice changing that feeling around into one of thankfulness.

I am going to call one of you to come up here and peek inside this box. Don't take anything out of the box. Leave it inside for everyone else to see. Also, don't say anything. Don't let anyone know what is inside the box. Keep it a secret. Okay, I'm looking for children who are sitting quietly.

(Wait until the children sit quietly. Choose your first student to come and look inside the box calling him or her by name.)

Remember (name of student), do not say what's inside the box. Put your hands behind your back so you are not tempted. Just smile if you are excited about what you see. Then go back and sit down.

(After the child returns to his or her seat, ask the other students the following question:)

Who was a little sad because you weren't picked to look inside the box? If so, please raise your hand. (Allow for the show of hands.)

Now, that might be a feeling of jealousy. Instead of feeling sad or jealous, we should be happy for (name of student) who was sitting quietly and following the rules. Many of you were doing the same thing, but (name of student) was picked first, and your turn will come soon. Let’s clap and cheer for (name of student) to show how happy we are for him/her.

Now, I will pick another student.

(Choose your second student to come and look inside the box calling him or her by name. Continue this process until each child has a chance to peek inside the box. After each student, follow up by asking the others to raise their hands if they felt sad or jealous for not being called and then clapping and cheering for the fortunate student.)

Now that everyone has had a chance to look inside the box, let’s talk about how well we did at being happy for our friends. Raise your hand if you feel like you learned to be happy for someone when he or she gets something special. That’s great! There will always be times when you are not picked to do something, and so it is good to practice being happy for someone instead of being mad, sad, or jealous. You all did so well that I think it is time to pass out what is inside the box.

(Give each child a well deserved treat to eat during class or to take home.)
