Strumbie Island
by Semerc
Supports and encourages the development of emotional literacy in young children
The Strumbie Island CD-ROM and photocopiable storybook helps with recognising, understanding and appropriately expressing emotions and behaviour.
Do your students have emotions that are sometimes frightening or difficult to deal with?
Then let them travel to Strumbie Island with Billy where they can explore and join in the fun!
The Strumbies are a secretive, generally good-natured race of people. Due to their small size however, they can only have one feeling at a time and are often named after their strongest feeling. How will Billy get on when he meets Dol, Mimi, Stomp, Brag, Patience, Cheeri, Grump, Misty and the others? Come and watch and join in!
