Produktbeschreibung

"Sometimes I Feel Like a Tornado" is an innovative children's book created by a seasoned kindergarten teacher, designed to help young readers identify and manage their emotions with research-based strategies. Rooted in the CASEL SEL framework, this engaging story transforms abstract feelings into concrete, relatable experiences using the metaphor of weather. Each weather element represents a specific emotion: Tornado (Anger): A whirlwind of strong emotions. Rain (Sadness): A gentle expression of feeling down. Rainbow (Calm/Problem Solver): A guide for finding balance and solutions. Wind (Worry/Anxiety): The uncertainty of nervousness. Sun (Happiness): The warmth and brightness of joy. Lightning (Grumpiness/Frustration): Moments of irritation that can be managed. The story follows Twister and his weather friends as they explore their feelings and learn practical techniques to regulate emotions. Through playful interactions and easily applicable strategies, children discover that it's okay to experience a range of emotions, and they learn how to express them in healthy, constructive ways. Key features include: Expert-Driven Insights: Crafted by a kindergarten teacher with real classroom experience, offering strategies that work in everyday settings. CASEL SEL Framework: Aligns with established SEL standards to ensure effective emotional learning. Relatable Metaphors: Uses familiar weather elements to make complex feelings tangible and accessible. Actionable Strategies: Provides practical tips for teachers, librarians, and parents to guide discussions and activities. Vibrant Illustrations: Engaging artwork that captures the imagination of young readers and supports the learning experience. Perfect for classroom use, library storytimes, and home reading sessions, "Sometimes I Feel Like a Tornado" is more than a story-it's a valuable resource for building emotional intelligence in early childhood. Empower your young readers to navigate their emotions with confidence and compassion through a narrative that is as fun as it is educational.
