Drishti School conducted a workshop on an “Art of Storytelling” for the teachers

“Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater!”

Keeping this view in mind, Drishti Dr. R. C. Jain Innovative Public School conducted a workshop on an “Art of Storytelling” for the teachers. This session aimed to enhance the listeners’ imaginative skills and make the classroom vibrant.  The workshop facilitator,  Dr.  Neera Sharma, former Principal, DAV Public School, Amritsar, commenced the session by sharing her journey from becoming a teacher to an impressive storyteller. While narrating her own story, she went down the memory lane and shared the instrumental role played by the two stalwarts in the field of education i.e. the Director of the school, Ms. Sudesh Ahlawat and Ms. V. Puri, the former Principal of the school. While explaining various aspects of storytelling like character development, plot structure, setting and conflict/resolution, she provided a real-time experience to the teachers through live demonstrations. The resource person further added that by using stories, teachers can capture the learner’s attention and convey complex ideas in a more relatable and understandable way.   This  interactive session ended with an engaging activity which provided the teachers an insightful knowledge of integrating stories with other subjects like Maths, Science and Social Science. The Principal, Dr. Manisha Gangwar thanked the resource person for such an interesting session.
