Hocus pocus time to focus. So I am looking right here at story time,
and I know that for story time, I am expected to be sitting crisscross on the rug.
Whole-body listening at a level zero. But, there will be times when I'm going to ask some of you to talk.
When I ask you to talk, I'm going to ask you to be a level two.
I'm doing a favorite story. Do you remember when we read this story before - "Glad Monster, Sad Monster"?
Well a few days ago we read the story about "Today I Feel Silly",
and we talked about different moods and those moods reminded me about "Glad Monster, Sad Monster".
So I thought, wouldn't it be fun if we did that story again?
But I'm going to need some help. You see, I'm going to need some monsters.
Do you think you can be some monsters for me?
So what I'm going to do is, I'm going to give you the feelings monsters,
and when I do that, I'm going to ask you if you can think about a time when maybe you felt that way.
Would you be willing to help me with that and talk about feelings?
So Fidel, will you be the Glad Monster? You can just put it down. And there'll be a part when I'll ask you to talk to me about being glad.
Could you be the Angry Monster? Could you be the Loving Monster?
Alex, do you think you could be the Sad Monster?
Amaya could you be the Worried Monster? Camila could you be the Scary Monster?
Could you be the Silly Monster, Justin? Yes. Thank you very much.
Okay, so if you could keep your monsters quiet, we'll read the story. Now, I know your looking there thinking,
I didn't get to be a monster. Guess what, I'm going to need you to be one of those monsters for me as soon as we get done.
I'm going to need every single one of you to think about a feeling and talk to me.
So while you're listening, listen to what your friends say and think about it.
Hmm, I feel that way sometimes too, or no,
I have a different feeling, because we're going to need to know.
Troy, are you going to be ready for this? Can you help me out, because I'm going to need you to be a monster in just a minute? Okay, a feeling monster.
So this is my story, "Glad monster, Sad monster", and this is a book about feelings.
It was written by Ed Emberly and Ann Miranda.
"Glad Monster, Sad Monster", a book about feelings.
The yellow monster says, "Opening birthday presents, playing ball, slurping ice cream,
and dancing with my friend made me glad. Here is the Glad Monster.
Fidel, could you stand up and show them the Glad Monster?
Fidel, when are you glad? What makes you glad? Doing cartwheels.
Doing cartwheels makes you glad. I know, it makes me glad when I see you do them.
Thank you very much. You did a nice job with that.
Alright, are you ready for another monster?
The red monster says, "Being bugged by a bug; getting splashed; being laughed at when I fall down;
and having someone knock over my blocks makes me angry".
Oh, here is the Angry Monster. Oh, those things would make me angry too.
Can you help me, Maurice. Can you show us the Angry Monster? Maurice,what makes you angry?

and hugging wiggly puppies makes me feel loving." Oh this is the Loving Monster.

and having it rain on parade day makes me sad. The blue monster is sad.

You're not sure. We'll wait and find out, okay?
Thank you, Alex. Thank you. Okay, let's find the next monster.
The orange monster says, "Listening to a terrible thunderstorm; imagining what's hiding under my bed;
seeing little creepy crawly things; and being chased by a grumpy growling thing;
those worry me. "Oh, the orange monster is worried.

Let's see our next monster. Camila do you have the next? You do. Ok.
The green monster says, "Growling; showing my sharp white teeth; waving my hands in the air; and saying
shoo, shoo, and boo, boo, makes me very scary.
Okay, so this monster is scary. Not really scared, but a scary funny monster.
Okay Camila what can you think of when you want to be scary? I scare my little brother.
You scare your little brother. Can you show us how you do that? Boo! Is that what you do?
I'll bet you're a very scary monster, Camila.
All right, Justin, are you ready? The purple monster says, "Being upside down; making funny faces;
wearing big monster clothes; and going goink, goink, goink all around the house,
is the Silly Monster." Justin, can you come here with the Silly Monster?
