Aadithya Arjun, an internationally certified
storyteller, conducted an online storytelling
and drawing session for students of grades
3 through 5.
She captivated the students by enacting and
singing the story and using objects to represent
the characters in the story. She then teased
their imagination by giving them clues to
draw something instead of revealing the
topic. e.g. clues to draw a frog were it’s
green and croaks.
The students drew with inspiration and
quickly shared their drawings online.
They now want more such sessions.
A teacher from Isha Vidhya, Aragonda, says
this session has given them a new
understanding of how to tell stories
creatively to engage students’ interest.
