Each activity helped drive the story home.Review from Best Apps for KidsSo, what is a Traditional Storyteller? It's someone who has mastered the art of telling a story so well that the words come to life and transform themselves into pictures in a child's imagination. It's the way we've learned for millennia and it's absolutely captivating.It's also highly educational. Childrens early knowledge of stories is one of the most important indicators of later educational achievement. With the Traditional Storyteller you can access the very best traditional storytellers on your iPad, iPhone or iPod whenever and wherever you like. This app features Cat Weatherill and tells the old favourite story of the Three Little Pigs. As you'd expect there's a lot of huffing and puffing by the big bad wolf, whilst the pigs build their houses.All the Traditional Storyteller apps feature a master storyteller talking directly to the child. No gimmicks, no sound effects, just the storyteller enrapturing the child through the expressive use of words, gestures, facial expressions and direct eye contact.As well as the story, there are three games within the app that have been developed by teachers and use proven classroom techniques to develop childrens listening, understanding, speaking and literacy. Each App includes: A classic tale from around the world, told by an Internationally renowned storyteller. Map Game. Rearrange the illustrated audio tiles into the right order a fun way to understand the structure of the story. Listen and Repeat Game. Children listen to a short section of the story and record themselves re-telling it. Tell Your Story Game builds on the other games and allows the child (or parent) to record their own version of the story and email it to relatives or friends Best Bits. A short selection of best bits chosen by our little testers.
