I ♥ Big Books!
What are Big Books? A fantastic way to tell stories! Big Books are gaining in popularity as the ideal story-telling method for classrooms. Large books – not just large format but usually A1 or 420x 297mm (A3) in size – this size is for a teacher to read to a class and the class are able to see the picture and also the text easily.
Why? Well think about the bombardment of digital noise and images – a child has no chance to calmly focus and concentrate on a simple voice and an image! How can this be achieved? The simple old story-telling approach is still as much a favorite now as it was when humans sat around a fireplace as nomads. Think back to your own days at school and remember some of those precious story-telling moments – they are still fondly remembered by most of us!
Teachers are able to calm children to sit quietly and enjoy focusing on a voice and an image – no distractions and totally engrossed in the story. Not only is it great education but it is a relief for children from the constant digital 'noise' of visual and auditory stimuli from all media angles.
