Description

The warmest of greetings to you! Join us as we explore the best teaching method known to science: storytelling. Did you know that, in 2014, EU Lifelong Learning proved children remember far more from storytelling than any other teaching method? We are here to show teachers how they can engage their students through storytelling, so their children have more success in English, Maths, Science, and more. Hosted by Oxford Owl storyteller Chip Colquhoun, author of the EU’s guidance on using stories in the classroom, this podcast takes the weekly story in our sister podcast, Fables & Fairy Tales, and discusses it with educators to help you teach through story. Teaching isn’t just about worksheets – every good teacher knows it requires a dash of wonder, a sprinkling of innovation, and a heap of heart. We look forward to sharing stories with you! Find us on Facebook and Twitter using @TeachHappily, and you and your classes can take part in fun challenges to boost their learning whilst also winning prizes! Plus let us know what topics you need us to cover... Want to download some of our lesson plans and resources? Sign up as an Epic Educator at epictales.co.uk/teachhappily!
