Exploring the Emotions of the Renaissance

In this activity, students will create a 'Character Diary' stepping into the shoes of a historical figure from the Renaissance.

4. Ask groups to apply the RULER method to articulate the emotions they believe their historical figure experienced amid the changes of the time.

5. Encourage students to identify emotions (joy, fear, curiosity, etc.), understand their causes and impacts, label them accurately, express them appropriately, and brainstorm ways to regulate these feelings.

6. After writing, each group should share their diary with the class, reading excerpts and discussing the identified emotions.

Post-activity, facilitate a group discussion where each group presents the emotions captured in their diaries and how they utilized the RULER method.
