Stories and story acting can help us make sense of the things in life that really matter to us.

In other news in @speechbubblescio.bsky.social yesterday a group of 5-7 year olds performed the 'wobbly tooth'

Something I'm hearing a lot from teachers atm is about learners being too passive in lessons. My sense is that this may well be linked to the idea of learning as 'content delivery' into children and young people's memories. If we see learning as an interaction instead that will help with engagement.
