The methods in this book develop a framework of inclusion that brings some joy into the process of storytelling and integrates it as a social and cultural form for the benefit of children who are at risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eIntroduction;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe story of stories;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eHow to find this book useful;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eChildren's stories and play development;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eStories and pictures for assessment;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e Stories and games for our senses;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eStories for feelings and emotions;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe child's story;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eFairy stories, myths and legends;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eCreating stories together;\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eResources\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"line-height: 140%; margin-bottom: 12pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 140%; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: #666666; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e[ISBN: 9780863882715; Spiral Bound;  192 Pages] \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"line-height: 140%; margin-bottom: 12pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 140%; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: #666666; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003e[Authors: Sue Jennings;  Age Suitability: 5-11 Yrsl] \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avid Readers Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51273229893915,"sku":"9780863882715","price":49.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/4363\/4203\/files\/9780863882715.jpg?v=1771450158","url":"https:\/\/abcschoolsupplies.ie\/products\/creative-storytelling-with-children-at-risk","provider":"ABC School Supplies ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
