Why storytelling works so well in schools?<br />
Quote<br />
"Language is a human instinct, but written language is not ... Children are wired for sound, but print is an optional accessory that must be painstakingly bolted on. This basic fact about human nature should be the starting point for any discussion about how to teach our children to read and write."Steven Pinker -- Cognitive scientist<br />
