World Book Day 2015: The Very Hungry caterpillar

Last April 23 was the World Book Day 2015, a yearly event created by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), to promote reading everywhere.
Today I am glad to share with you a very nice video to remember such a wonderful day with a school storytelling by Lourdes Molejon.
The story is The Very Hungry Caterpillar, a children's picture book designed, illustrated and written by Eric Carle.
Here is the clip.

Storytelling by Tess India

Today I am glad to share with you a very praiseworthy initiative.
You can see in the clip (Kannada commentary) a teacher showing the importance of storytelling in school with kids.
Tess India (Teacher Education through School-based Support in India) is an Open University funded by UK aid from the UK government.
I think that is all very appreciable, storytelling in school and a supporting education in other countries.
From the description: this video is one of a series produced by TESS-India to support teachers in developing learner-centred classroom practices. Filmed in primary and secondary schools in India, the aim of the videos is to inspire teachers to experiment with using similar approaches in their own classrooms. The videos are intended to complement the text-based TESS-India materials for teachers and school leaders. However, they may also be viewed independently of these materials.
TESS-India (Teacher Education through School-based Support in India) is an Open University, UK led teacher education project that has collaboratively developed a large repository of freely available, adaptable Open Educational Resources (OER) that support national education priorities in India. The resources are accessible in a range of media and languages, for use in multiple initial and continuing teacher development contexts.
Here is the video.

Body Parts Storytelling

I want to underline this, showing this very nice video of storytelling with kids (the story is about snow man). You can write teaching instead of storytelling too, it is the same to me.
Speaking to kids means doing this.
Look at this smart storyteller/teacher: she is 'down' with them, at their level, watching things with their wonderful and precious point of view.
This is the way making stories become something alive.
