On Thurs 13th Feb 2020, we had a

Seminar on "Ways of Using Storytelling

to Teach Various Subjects". 

 

Barry Stewart Mann -- in Atlanta, Georgia,

USA – kindly joined us via videoconference

and gave presentations relating to teaching

Math, and teaching about "Restorative

Justice".

 

Regarding the latter topic, Barry told a

Tamil folk tale, "The Fish Brother," and

then led us in a wonderful role-play

relating to the story. 

 

Barry begins telling the story at 34:00.

The role-play process begins at 38:45,

and continues to the end of the recording

at 52:00.

 

The recording is here.

 

(Note: Zoom was used for all CSF 2019

2020 videoconferences.)
