Ellie, Evan, Jesse, and Molly go on the best adventure of all as they learn about sharing an imagination when they play and pretend together in Storybook 10 of the We Thinkers! Vol. 2 social emotional learning curriculum for ages 4-7. From imagining their swings as their galloping ponies to speeding in their firetruck to the rescue of a turtle family in danger, the four friends use the social concepts they’ve learned to make smart guesses about what each other is imagining and use flexible thinking to adapt to change and work together as a group to include others’ ideas in their constantly changing imaginary world. When they think about each other’s thoughts, feelings, and actions, along with sharing their own with their friends, they can play and imagine in ways they never would have thought of by themselves! When we consider the thoughts and feelings of multiple minds, it fosters our own creativity and relationship development, along with other fundamental concepts taught in storybooks 1-10, 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.
