March 9th-19th: Glad Monster, Sad Monster

We are continuing our exploration of feelings by reading Sad Monster, Glad Monster by one of our favourite authors, Ed Emberley! This book discusses various situations and how the monster feels about them and helps students to make the connections between events or things they are thinking about about how they are feeling. We are making our own feeling monsters in art and continuing our exploration of how different emotions make us feel and move in gym!
