During “morningcircle3" the students not only tell their class how they are feeling today but also try to connect to each others’ responses. One student starts by telling how and why they are feeling a certain way today. The other students try to relate to the story by asking themselves “How do I experience that feeling?” or “When did I experience that feeling lately?”. Whoever can connect to the previous story goes next until it was every student’s turn.

 

For example: Student A says: “I feel tired and a bit unmotivated. I think that’s because I didn’t sleep well last night.” Student B answers: “I know how that feels. I didn’t sleep well either. But actually, I also feel a bit angry because the reason I couldn’t sleep is that my brother was listening to loud music.” Student C continues: “I’m sorry that you didn’t sleep well. I actually have a lot of energy. I am curious what we will do today. Maybe I can support you in a teamwork exercise?”
