'The Rainbow Dance by Elisabeth Kemp-Loosli can be used to explore the concept of accepting difference and diversity. The simple but meaningful plot lends itself well to a storytelling setting. Prepare to tell the story by creating a felt-covered storyboard, felt ëbutterflyí characters and felt pieces such as a lake, garden and park. To encourage maximum participation, invite individual students to manipulate felt pieces as the story is told. The book and these felt pieces may be placed in the reading corner for independent student use. Students could expand their work on this book by creating butterflies and investigating colour.'
