OVERVIEW
Offering young learners wonderful stories, with interesting images and clever plots, is an essential part of our students’ journey towards literacy. More than that, learning how to listen and feel the magic that’s concealed within the pages is a crucial part of childhood! In this webinar, we will explore ways in which we can include Story time sessions and reading work in our classes. I will share practical tips on how to prepare your students and how to involve them, but more importantly, let’s talk about how to touch their souls and make meaningful connections to their lives through storytelling.
