Author, Actor and Playwright Chris Connaughton

We were very lucky to have Chris Connaughton visit us again yesterday. As well as telling stories he was showing and teaching the children how to tell their own stories. We are concentrating on oracy as a school and this day helped the children understand not only how to make up their own stories but to retell them clearly and with expression. Children need to be be articulate and this will in turn improve their writing. It was a fun and very engaging day.
