StoryMaking

  • Childreach 265 Maitland Street London, ON, N6B 2Y3 Canada (map)

Learn how to bring a story to life! Join us to explore literacy development through story tables. We will look at reflection, bringing the indoors outside, mindfulness and mapping.

StoryMaking is about celebrating the multimodal literacies and learning that are demonstrated by young children as they imagine, play, make, and share their stories. It encourages inquiry-based play to develop literacy, and combines:

  • Story-retelling and story creation

  • the Maker Movement—a creative and technological revolution in education that is underway around the globe

  • the importance of play in the early learning curriculum

  • Reggio theory

StoryMaking is the practice of communicating a variety of ways (e.g. language, gesture, images) over various systems (e.g. visual, audible, physical), and moving children forward in their literacy learning.

Learn how to read stories so that you keep your children engaged!
