WEEK 11: November 7-11th 2016

This week we have had lots of fun exploring different types of storytelling .Students have listened to stories, watched stories and even had a chance to perform themselves! Here we went outside to the stage in the playground and acted out the story of " The Three Billy Goats Gruff" using masks.

 Students also had a chance to be storytellers by retelling the story of "Goldilocks" using picture prompts which they ordered themselves. We took time to reflect on what makes a good storyteller from their experience as the audience.
