A Lesson Plan from Life Planning Education:A Youth Development Program
Purpose:To learn about body language and how to use body language Materials:Cards;container Time:25-35 minutes Planning Notes:
·Write the words below on cards:
angry·disappointed·shy·afraid·sad·happy·nervous·excited·bored
·Place the cards in the container so volunteers can draw them out one at a time. Steps:
First,make sure that all volunteers know what body language means(expressing feelings through body movement and facial expressions).Go over the following instructions:
·I'll need at least 9 volunteers to play a game similar to charades (猜词游戏). ·The first volunteer will draw a card with a feeling written on it and act out the feeling without using words.
·The rest of the group will guess what feeling is being communicated.Once someone correctly guesses the feeling,the next person in line will draw a card and act out what is written on it,again without words.
·The game will continue until there are no more cards or until time is up. At last,end the activity using the discussion points below:
·Can you give examples of when someone's body language communicated a different message from what he/she actually skid?
·Sometimes one person is offended (冒犯) by another's body language.How can you work to keep that from happening?Answers may include:be honest and direct;match your nonverbal messages to your verbal ones;be aware of (清楚)
cultural attitudes toward different kinds of body language.

Amy Cuddy,a Harvard psychologist,has devoted her studies to the influence body language that has on your confidence...and finally,success.Her biggest findings center on the powerful effects of positive body language.Positive body language includes things like proper eye contact,active listening,and gestures that show the message you're trying to express.Studies show that people who use positive body
language are more likable (讨人喜欢的),persuasive,and emotionally intelligent. Here's how it works:
Positive body language changes your attitude.Cuddy found that consciously (有意识地) changing your body language to make it more positive improves your attitude because it has a powerful influence on your body.
It makes you more likable.In a Tufts University study,people watched soundless videos of doctors interacting with their patients.Just by observing the doctors' body language,people were able to guess which doctors ended up getting complained by their patients.Body language plays a big role in how you're viewed and can be more important than your voice or even what you say.Learning to use positive body language will make people like you and trust you more.
It improves your emotional intelligence.Your ability to effectively communicate your emotions and ideas is central to your emotional intelligence.People whose body language is negative have a destructive effect on those around them.Working to improve your body language has a great effect on your emotional intelligence.
We often think of body language as the result of our attitude or how we feel.This is true,but psychologists have also shown that the opposite is true:changing your body language changes your attitude.
