abstract |
This research, commissioned by MakeBelieve Arts, a London-based theatre and education
company, evaluated their educational programme for enhancing young children’s storytelling
and story acting. The programme, called the ‘Helicopter Technique’, is based on the
work of Gussin Paley’s work. Whilst this has received widespread recognition in the
field of children’s play and narrative engagement , ther has been little empirical
research into its benefits. The work encompassed examination of archival material
and classroom based observations and documentation, as well as scrutiny of the children’s
stories scribed in class story books,and interviews with staff involved in the pre
prgramme taaining and in class coaching. The work aimed to investigate the value of
this approach for children and early years practitioners, and to consider how programme
could be improved and made more sustainable in early years classrooms. Overall, the
Helicopter Technique was found to provide a rich framework for supporting young children’s
learning across diverse curriculum areas, and was a motivating and valuable pedagogical
tool for developing creative and reflective teaching. Diverse recommendatiosn were
made regarding the future development of the technique. |
