Product Information

RPT-S™ , and EMDR Consultant. I help therapists that work with kids and teens go from a place of stress and survival to inspired and thriving. I give child therapists the resources, tools, and skills they need to be effective and confidentin their practice! Use Scratch (or a similar coding platform) to program a monster that changes colour when you press different keys (or when another action takes place).

Don’t forget to explore our ideas and resources based on the original Colour Monster book too! Teaching Ideas and Resources: English If you’re looking for a more advanced activity to pair with the reading of this wonderful book, then look no further! This activity requires students to listen to the story and then spend time completing this fill-in-the-blank worksheet; inferring the monster’s feelings from what they have heard. Use this colourful display banner to create a display all about feelings and emotions. The display banner is editable enabling you to enter the text of your choice.This activity has its roots in social-emotional learning skills. These skills aid little ones in developing self-awareness, self-control, and interpersonal skills. Have your students draw 2 jars; one in which they will write a happy memory, and one in which they record a sad memory. Once your learners have completed the writing task, invite them to share their memories with the class and connect with others. Encouraging freedom of expression, especially at a young age, is very important. This activity encourages learners to use their imagination and tap into their own emotions. Guide learners on how to draw a funky monster by first giving a demonstration, and then handing out art supplies and letting them take the wheel as they create their own.

The displays give children the language to help them describe and express how they are feeling which is such an important part of their emotional development. Review story vocabulary. Here are some words in the story you may want to define: emotions, jumbled, separate, shines, twinkles, happiness, sadness, lonely, washes over, alone, burns, stamp out, unfair, disappear, fear, afraid, courage, shadows, calm, quiet, swaying, breathe, peace, different. (I would choose just a few.)The Colour Monster doesn’t know what school is. How would you explain it to him? How would you describe all of the things that you can do at school? Make a list of words that the author links with each colour, e.g. yellow = bright and light, blue = gentle and alone. Can you think of synonyms for these words? Let’s explore colour some more through messy play! The children might like to experiment with paint or water and food dye by mixing colours to see what new colours they can make. What colours can they create and what feelings do they link with their new colours? Retell the story from the Colour Monster’s point of view. This could be in the form of a diary. You could also write Nuna’s story about the day.
