Venue: Edinburgh

Event Date: 06/06/2024 17:00 - 17:45

Noting the apparent contradiction between a national commitment to play-based learning and the absence of this in the teaching of languages, M.Ed Tania Czajka will present a case study on the use of creative puppetry as a means to enhance not only levels of engagement and confidence among the children, but also a valuable tool for the professional development of teachers and early years educators involved in the delivery of languages. For this, Tania will draw from her experience as an Early Years Practitioner, author and puppeteer as well as her own research.

The event will be held at the Institut française in Edinburgh and is free to attend but registration is required.
