This research is quantitative and aimed to develop 10 Workshops - Emotional Life, with a group of 12 students (experimental group) of the 9th grade of Middle School, in a Municipal School of Porto Alegre Net of Education, comparing with control group (n = 28). By analyzing the responses of students, through two scales of self-report, a Self-Esteem (SE) and another Positive Affections (PA) and Negative Affections (NA), we find the pre-test, which students had mean levels for high PA; low levels of NA; and average levels for SE high, accounting for the entire sample (n = 40). When the scales were applied, we ask students to take into account the school context. We developed in the following thematic workshops: emotions and feelings, his action in the conduct of daily life and school. With the study of self-concept, with its self-image and self-esteem components, it is aimed to positively stimulate the perception and self-esteem. Deal of empathy and assertiveness, for the understanding and use of these concepts in relationships, can promotes emotional connections. We work also with the functioning of the brain as the center of thought, emotions, sensations, behavior and memory. To compare, through an ANOVA, the results of the averages of students in both scales, before and after the workshops, the experimental and control groups, we found that the experimental group had lower mean PA and SE, in the pretest, than the control group, and higher levels of NA. We found that the experimental group in the post-test, showed statistically significant increase in mean the PA. NA and SE also changed in the expected direction, reducing the NA and increasing in SE, although not significant. The control group remained with the average virtually unchanged from pre to post-test. Results of school performance, the experimental group showed improvement after the workshops. We believe that all of these results can indicate that our study was relevant for revealing positive results, showing that when the emotional dimension is intentionally developed, through an educational activity organized in the educational context, it can change positively the students levels of PA, NA and SE, that fact can lead to positive repercussions in the students academic and personal life.
