description: Come
along to this fun and participative day to develop your storytelling
techniques linked to the social and emotional aspects of learning. Traditional
tales have been the means for handing down wisdom and understanding
emotion throughout the ages, and there is no reason why your 21st century
classroom should be any different. You will practice powerful tools
for gripping your audience, find out where stories come from, discover
why they are so engaging and learn how you can harness this magic to
explore the seven themes of SEAL.
Suitable
for: KS1&2
teachers, teaching assistants and any other interested staff.
