stories are so important to weave into our
classrooms. 

Some of the things they discuss are  -


The importance of story in all our lives, as well as in the
classroom. How developing the presentation of stories and reading
to the class can impact on the school’s reading culture.

emotional empathy, creative thinking and a safe, supportive
atmosphere for their own ideas.
