This week our first
graders were hooked into a wonderful story session with the drama teacher Ms.
Garima. Her story telling skills captivated our children’s attention as
she narrated the story; ‘The Famous Smile’. The story unfolded such that after
several failed attempts, Agar Magar the character finally makes it big;
when he decides to take a tour of the mighty river, the deep forest and the
mighty town. The story goes on to reveal how Agar Magar the crocodile goes to
places flaunting his sparkly, shiny teeth and his famous smile and in doing so
does he manage to fish for compliments or attract the animals for his tasty
meal. This interactive story was written by author Geeta Dharmaharajan.
Story telling
sessions always add fun to an exciting week. A big advantage of storytelling is
to enhance a child's vocabulary, imagination and expressions.
