The Colour Monster

A power point with sheets that takes a class through the story of the colour monster.

The sheets add more words to help children express their feelings through further synonyms which they are able to choose. For example happiness: glee, elation, pleasure, delight, jubilation.

A microphone is also needed as children are encouraged to add their own thoughts to the power point after each emotion is expressed. For instance What makes you scared? These can be revisited and used to highlight how different things make different people feel.

The power point also has a graph where the children can chart how they think the character is feeling as the monster goes through all the different emotions.
