100 Episodes of Happily Ever Teaching!

For 100 episodes, we've helped educators create the most effective, memorable and enjoyable learning environment – according to science. But what is the experience of teachers on the ground using these methods? In this landmark episode, we find out.

Our educators share the improvements they've seen in their classroom using storytelling as a teaching tool, why they think it works, the benefits it brings to their own mental health, and more – while also sharing lesson ideas around non-chronological reports, safeguarding, and classification, using a story specially selected for the upcoming Foster Care Fortnight.

Sharing their ideas with you are...

• EY-KS1 teacher Helen
• KS2 teacher Toria (host of the Tiny Voice Talks podcast)
• former EY-KS1 teacher Abi, currently education adviser for Festival Bridge
• KS2 teacher Rob
• KS2 teacher, SLT and teacher trainer Bex

...and your host, storyteller Chip from the Oxford Owl and Epic Tales websites.

The lesson ideas in this podcast accompany the Colombian folk tale currently available to be heard in full via our sister podcast Fables & Fairy Tales. For additional resources – including lesson plans, story books, storytelling videos, classroom challenges and more – visit epictales.co.uk
