Coles Millie Mermaid Wants to Go to School: A 'Let's Talk About It' book at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Millie is a shy little mermaid who can't wait to go to school to make friends and play games like she sees her big sister Kate and the other mermaids doing. But when she visits Miss Sandy's Seaside School she learns it's not like a play-date and she's not sure what to expect. Can Miss Sandy help her feel better? This short, interactive book poses different scenarios familiar to preschoolers and kindergarteners. Within its pages are suggested questions or comments to help the teacher discover the children's world. "Were you just waiting' to go to school or were you not so sure?" There are also questions to help develop empathy and problem-solving skills. "How do you think Millie felt?" or "What could you say to help Millie feel better?" The 'Let's Talk About It' approach encourages children to reflect on questions and situations familiar to them. Learning to verbalize and share their encounters and insights in a small group setting promotes skills so critical for this age. Using sea creatures to tell the story is a gentle introduction to another part of our universe. Lush and colorful illustrations help hold the short attention span of this age group.
