Children learn in many ways, including listening to stories. A story can be told anywhere, at any time. Even without books and illustrations children can use their imagination to take them to new places, explore new ideas or engage in new activities.
Getting children involved in telling and listening to stories can help them to learn new words; learn about their culture and the cultures of others, learn about numbers, colours and sizes; learn to concentrate and stimulate their imagination.
Author Helen Evans offers many years of expertise in storytelling, and will help you develop your storytelling skills through chapters including:
- ideas to start your storytelling
- the five steps in storytelling
- finding stories
- the language of stories
- two stories for you to try
Everyday learning about storytelling will help you discover your inner storyteller.
