        Hi，boys and girls. It’s our story time. Look at the cover of this book. How many colors of it? Yes, there are four colors. And do you know what animals are they? Oh, maybe you know, but don’t know how to say in English. It doesn’t matter. Let’s read it and get the answer. The title of the book is,‘ The colour monster’. Yes, the animals are the monsters. And it’s a pop-up book. The author is Anna Llenas. The story starts with an introduction by a friend of the monster. It is a colorful and funny monster.It mixed all his feelings. Why? All colours jumbled up all his emotions. So the girl helped the monster to separate his feelings and put each one in it’s own jar. Do you think it’s a new idea?

    Look! The yellow means happiness. It shines yellow like the sun and twinkles like stars. When you are happy you laugh, jump, dance and play. You want to share the feelings with everyone. So that’s the reason why I like yellow so much. I’ a happy lady. The blue means sadness. It’s gentle and blue like a rainy day. When you’re sad you might want to cry or be alone. The red means anger. It blazes bright red. When you are angry, you want to stomp and roar and shout,‘It’s not fair.’ The black means fear. It hides in the black shadows. When you are afraid, you feel tiny and helpless. Fear makes it hard to brave. The green means calm. It is as light as a green leaf floating in the wild. When you are calm, you breathe slowly and deeply. You feel at peace. OK, all feelings are in different jars.

      And can you guess what colour is it next? What emotion does it stand for? Please think about it and tell me.

    From this story telling, we can teach the children the words of colours and feelings. And how to control our emotions and release sadness, fear and anger. Meanwhile, it can make the children think further.
