This project is fantastic! It is so much fun for the children and the educational benefits are huge.

​

 Oral storytelling is so important in giving children a sense of a story It creates an instinctive understating of how a narrative should progress whether it is spoken or written.  For some children who find writing challenging, taking away the pen and paper has given them freedom to express themselves and it has reactivated their love of English lessons.  This motivation has continued beyond the end of the project.
