Emer is a neurodivergent elephant with** sensory sensitivities** who changes color depending on her emotions. She focuses on teaching children the basic emotions of happy, sad, angry and scared, how to** identify these emotions **in themselves/others and how to manage their emotions.
As autistic children tend to learn best with visuals, Emer has been designed to provide children with a clear image of each emotion. The colors help children who struggle with** identifying expressions and body language** to connect Emerās movements and facial expressions with the relevant emotion.
The stories are also designed using Gestalt Language techniques, simple language, repeated phrases, visuals and colors to make the stories easy for children with** language and communication difficulties** to access and understand. The information in this stories is then repeated in the other stories to help children to consolidate it.
Children can find emotions very difficult to learn and often find learning the whole range of emotions and complex emotions overwhelming, because of this it is important to first build a strong base by focusing on these key emotions.
Includes:
Four stories - Happy, sad, angry and scared.
(Both in PowerPoint and pdf format so they can be used as a presentation or printed off and used as a book.)
