Description

The ability to communicate is an essential life skill for all children and young people and it underpins their social, emotional and educational development. If a child experiences a positive relationship with an adult listening carefully, they are more likely to constructively share their thoughts, feelings and their imaginative ideas.

That's My Story! places children's imagined stories at the heart of their own development and provides a joyful, creative approach to support young children's personal and social development and to encourage their communication. In this book you will find:

  • Tried-and-tested drama games and activities that support communication and well-being, all adaptable to complement your current practice
  • Guidance and advice on how to promote positive adult-child interactions
  • Examples of creative interventions that support children's communication development
  • A celebration of the joy that comes with carefully listening to children's own imagined stories

Those of us who work with children can sense a tangible connection between how young children feel and how they communicate. This essential and practical resource will be valuable reading for primary teachers, teaching assistants, speech and language therapists, and drama practitioners, as well as outreach and education departments of theatre companies and other arts organisations.
