Emotional intelligence is a fundamental aspect of personal development, and this class is designed to help elementary age students enhance their ability to recognize, understand, and expand their vocabulary effectively through colored feeling "zones." Through a combination of literary exploration, creative emotion and feeling activities, and reflective exercises, students will embark on a path of emotional literacy! This class is perfect for students going back to school, homeschooling, or need additional help with social emotional learning. Literary Exploration: We'll delve into the captivating narrative of "The Color Monster," an enchanting story that personifies emotions as vibrant colors. Together, we'll analyze the emotions depicted in the book, connecting them to real-life experiences and exploring how different emotions can be identified and expressed. This course is a great introduction to my Emotion Explorer Courses and sets the foundation for upcoming learning! It can be taken alone or as part of a class series.
