“The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon.” – Brandon Sanderson
Dikshant has been the first school in tricity to have storytelling as an integrated part of the curriculum. With an aim to bring the stories at the heart of learning, we are organizing monthly storytelling session by experts. The first in the series was a session by a writer, teacher and special educator since three decades Ms. Vinita Krishna.
Ms. Krishna is actively involved with the ‘Khaas Kitaab’ Foundation, an NGO engaged in publishing innovative books for children. She expresses her love for children in many ways and through various media. Her ‘special’ tactile and multi- sensorial books continue to win her international acclaim.
The session was filled with fun and excitement. Students learnt various concepts through the art of storytelling. She also held session with mothers of the students highlighting the importance of storytelling.
