Top and Tail Tales

Here is a little audio snippet of Mr Jelley talking about Storywalks which have a beginning and end, but the middle section is perfect for lots of pupils to add their own creations. They are designed to play to the strengths of children's incredible imaginations, but can also include quite factual or more historical type works.

Whilst working with Curry Mallet Primary School on their Magna Carta Storywalk 'The Weaver of Curry Mallet' it was important to keep the children stories grounded. There was a tendency for the tales to be so fantastical that they defied themselves, but once a few sensible rules were set up for the class as a whole they seemed to come back to earth.

There are lots of resources inside the Storywalk engine, all designed to support curriculum focused teaching and learning beyond the classroom walls.
