Photos from a three-day Pearson Longman workshop at St. Paul's School (Lam Tin), Hong Kong, Feb. 2008

The workshop began with a teachers' session

Lively discussions

Telling it strongly

Then the work with the students began - with a story, of course

Different activities: partner work
Re-telling a story in a small group

Group work - with assistance

A writing activity following on from hearing the powerful Welsh tale of Beth Gellert - a story of misplaced anger, death and life-long regret
Work in progress ...

... telling the tale in four scenes ...

... in pictures and words
(here are more picture stories created by students in Germany)

A reading activity

Storytelling offers lots of spin-off activities in the classroom - here some more writing

The three-day workshop ended with an opportunity for those wished to perform for all - here two young tandem tellers

An amazingly polished, assured performance from Edith - for me, a genuine highlight
