NOTE: This storybook includes a read-aloud option which is accessible on Google and IOS devices.


Learn how to actively listen with your brain and body in another social learning adventure with Evan, Ellie, Molly, and Jesse in storybook 5 of the We Thinkers! Vol. 1 social emotional learning curriculum for ages 4-7. On their visit to the zoo, the children learn how listening with brain and body helps them stay connected to the person who is speaking and figure out what’s happening around them. They learn how their brain, eyes, mouth, arms, hands, legs, and feet help them figure out how they listen best and use perspective taking to also learn how those around them listen best as well. Continue building on this important social concept with the fundamental concepts taught in storybooks 6-10, which align with the corresponding teaching units within the related curriculum. Best practice: teach these concepts in order, starting with storybook 1 of 10 while using the corresponding curriculum.
