Story telling competition
Storytelling is crucial in a child’s development. We
live our lives through narrative and
the earlier we can start the better. Storytelling opens up channels of
communication and stimulates emotional, imaginative and linguistic development.
It encourages participation and develops confidence and a sense of self-esteem.
Storytelling surrounds the child with imaginative
language, introduces unfamiliar words
in a narrative context, introduces narrative structure and allows children to give
voice to their own ideas in their own language through telling their own
stories, children learn to structure orally, to share and listen to their peers
and to use their own language with pride. Story telling competition was
organized for Pre-primary at Orchids – The International School on 07/02/2014.
Students showcased their talent with great enthusiasm.
