Blog | No Strings Attached - Puppets in the Classroom!

In this blog post, Ben talks about his enthusiasm for using puppets in the classroom. While he is a strong advocate for technology, he believes that puppets consistently engage his students every day. After moving from a Year 6 class to Year 2, he initially thought the younger children would easily believe in the magic of the puppets.

However, Ben realized that for the children to respect the puppets, they needed to develop trust. During a storytelling session, one child humorously pointed out the hole in the puppet's head, but later, he surprised Ben by retelling a story about his own relationship with the puppet, proving the power of imagination.
