  • Description: Suitable for Years 1 and 2, each short video features five different traditional stories. Each story start is performed with puppets using a variety of different techniques - hand, glove and rod, shadow and table top. The story starts take the story to the point at which teachers can work with all abilities of writers to enhance characterisation, simple plot and settings. Skilled writers will be able to come up with and write their own endings to the stories, while less able writers can write about what they have seen on screen. The five traditional stories featured are Red Riding Hood, The Miserly Farmer, The Key in the Sea, The Raja's Secret, and Aladdin
