We present the concept of Storytelling and Emotional Education and their contributions to the teaching-learning process. The instruments and methodological procedures used were: storytelling, conversation and observation of the speeches and facial and body expressions of children that corroborated with a vast bibliographical survey of theorists from both areas. We identified that storytelling is not just a momentary practice to distract or keep children quiet, since the use of this activity in the school curriculum can stimulate children's imagination, increasing the taste for reading and expanding their vocabulary and expression oral. Thus, by including Emotional Education in the narration of tales and stories, teachers / accountants will be able to work on situations and emotions experienced in children's daily lives in a subtle and creative way. The construction of the empirical material was carried out with the class of the second year “E” of the Initial Years of Elementary School 1 of Public Education, in the neighborhood José Américo, João PessoaParaíba.
