Story Tellers

We have been lucky to have had storytellers come to visit us.

Renita Bayer, an American lady came in to tell us different stories on the 9th of September. Primary 6-7 joined us too. We had lots of fun! She had us join in: standing up, sitting down, singing and doing different actions. She had a nice loud voice so everyone could hear and used lots of expression. She put a lot of effort into the stories and even though she only had 45 minutes with us she told us lots of different ones! We would love to have her again!

On the 15th of September we had a different kind of storytelling. This time it was in dialect! Brenda and Laureen came to read us a Shetland dialect book called ‘Mystery at da Lairds Haa’ We really enjoyed this too! They were really nice and gave us all a book each to take home! They showed us a website that we could go on and listen to the story and there were games too. We wished they could have stayed longer and read more but we have been enjoying reading the book ourselves.
