Confidence is learned. Everyone wants to be confident, but you need to learn what makes you feel confident and share that with others. Everyone has different things that make them feel confident. Cal feels confident when he jumps. Ada feels confident when she pretends to cook. Ben feels confident when he can act in a costume. Book eight of the I Feel ? When ? book series shows how many monster friends play together in a way to help everyone feel confident. They cope with their desire to feel confident by sharing what makes them confident and finding an activity they can all do what they do well. Each monster struggles with finding a way to work together and do what they can do well. They work out their feelings producing a play together. This colorful book opens the door to discussing confidence in a nonthreatening way for younger audiences. It also uses nonviolent communication as described on the YouTube channel ’Dealing with Feelings’ by psychotherapist Dr. Jim Porter and Karen Porter in their weekly show ’Feeling Fridays’. The husband-and-wife team invites you to explore feelings with your young reader as they begin to read. See how these furry friends learn appropriate ways to express feelings and solve problems by coping with their feelings through listening to one another and observing each other without judgement, expressing feelings and needs, and coping with feelings in compassionate helpful ways.Many of the words in the book are basic sight words.. Sight words are a subset of high-frequency words that do not sound the way they are spelled and are therefore not easily learned. Identifying these words and then finding them in the story will build literacy. Using words that students are familiar with helps them build fluency and flow as they read. Teaching students to memorize these words, by sight, helps them read faster with confidence. As you read through this series the young reader can develop mastery of all the sight words.Each story also contains a feeling word to build emotional literacy.
