# Year R storytelling

  ![Image of Year R storytelling](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/images/blog/IMG_3296.jpeg)  19 July 2024   [Cally Smith](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/blog/author/callysmith)   [Class of 2023-2030 - Year 2](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/blog/category/class-of-2023-2030-year-2)

The last Year R art lesson of the term – **storytelling**. Using baskets of plastic animals and a ‘luck dip’ bag of playmobil characters for inspiration, Year R created their own stories on rolls of paper with wax crayons.

This activity encourages the children to use their amazing imaginations; it is wonderful to see and listen to their stories. It also helps to develop the children’s communication, language and literacy as well as drawing skills, observation and fine motor skills.
