與多麗絲女士的普通話故事時間

In this class, we will read picture books related to emotions, self-awareness, and self-management skills.
Research on children's emotional education highlights the significant benefits of picture books in emotional development, offering a convenient and effective medium for emotional relief. These books often relate to real-life events and issues children encounter, helping them re-experience and process familiar situations. High-quality picture books with well-structured plots evoke emotional responses, allowing children to project and reflect their emotions, ultimately releasing negative feelings. Characters in these books typically possess high self-esteem and overcome personal problems, providing positive role models for children to imitate.

In this class, specific steps are taken to encourage children to express their feelings.
#Retelling: Have children verbally or through drawing retell a certain part of the story, the protagonist's emotional distress, their feelings, values, or behaviors.
#Identification: Ask children to point out similarities between the story and their own life experiences.
#Exploration: Let children explore events in their own lives and their outcomes.
#Inference: Allow children to infer related events in their lives.
#Evaluation: Ask children to evaluate whether there are other choices and solutions if similar events happen again.
Through the process of children narrating or drawing the story, we can observe the children's emotional projection; Children can also release negative emotions in this way. Through interactive discussions with teachers, children can learn problem-solving methods from the book's characters and think about how to cope with their own difficulties. 

Particular lessons include worksheets/activities that I have created uniquely for this course. I send these materials out in an announcement message via the online classroom each week if needed. I encourage families to print these resources if they have the means to do so. Having the materials printed and ready to go by the start of each class can greatly enhance your child's engagement and participation. If families are unable to print the materials, learners are always able to see and follow along with the activity/worksheet on my screen. Students are welcome to engage in activities on a blank sheet of paper if this works better for your family.
