Este artículo presenta un análisis de corte microetnográfico de un evento de habla conocido como la ronda, recurrente en muchas clases de educación infantil y primaria, en el que los niños y las niñas presentan al resto de la clase narraciones de experiencia personal. El estudio se realizó en un aula de educación infantil de cinco años en una escuela pública de Madrid y el evento seleccionado fue documentado a lo largo de todo un curso escolar. El análisis defiende que este acontecimiento comunicativo contribuye a que el grupo clase se constituya en una comunidad moral (Shweder, 1996), proceso que se ve reflejado en el modo en que se manejan temas afectivamente cargados, las normas de vida fuera del aula, la historia compartida de la clase o los derechos y deberes que rigen la interacción social durante este episodio.
