Friday Sharing Birbal and Akbar Stories

It was just beautiful to see how the children took on the challenge of creating their own Akbar and Birbal story. From a rough outline the previous day to stories which were shared and told by their groups, each participant telling their part and committing to physical/visual clues to help the rather large audience consisting of two classes, teachers and school governors follow the stories:

They shared their puppetry as they processed into the room, played music live 

and sang a song written using their questions from Akbar to Birbal

some more feedback from this first part of the project to follow but here is a taster:
