Storytelling Residency
Touring: All terms
Traditional Tales, Values, Compassion, Communication and language
Age Group: 3-7 (EYFS & KS1)
The Play House Storytelling Residency consists of a Storyteller working with small groups throughout the day. During the sessions the children co-create and share stories together based on a multi-sensory, initial stimulus offered by the storyteller. The storyteller then builds on ideas and any developing narrative coming from children's responses, both physical and verbal. We work with teachers to understand current learning focus and desired outcomes.
