“Story telling is the most powerful way to put ideas into the world today.”
- Robert Mckee
Story telling is one of the most effective ways to communicate with
students. A story stays with the children much longer than facts or
statistics as it is not a seemingly endless download of information
but a never ending journey of learning and understanding the world
around us.
To foster the skills of listening and reading, a story session was
conducted at The HDFC School, Gurgaon for Nursery to Grade 1 on
the 26.04.2023 by Ms. Shivani Kanodia .Her story telling brought
forth the fact that story telling is a shared experience among equals
in which the children were active participants.
Listening with rapt attention , students were exposed to the basics
of theatrical movements, voice modulation and the rhythm of
storytelling. Important values such as “Listening to your elders”,
“Importance of finding solution to a problem” and “Everyone is equal”
were inculcated amongst the kids.
Developing communication skills and expanding the realm of their
imagination was the main objective of the workshop. Overall, it was a
great learning experience which was thoroughly enjoyed by the kids.
