Teaching programs for the 1st degree

Story Boxes – Storytelling and creative workshops

Story boxes are creative workshops for children aged between 5 and 12 years. Each workshop is focused on one country where a large group of foreigners living in the Czech Republic comes from. The culture of specific countries is brought to the attention of children by telling fairy tales and subsequent art workshops, where children have the opportunity to process the fairy tale using traditional materials and techniques of the country.

The story boxes were created on the basis of creative workshops organized by InBaze in the Municipal Library in Prague every one to two months. The list of completed workshops together with photographs can be viewed below .

 

For kindergartens and primary schools

Kindergartens and primary schools (1st grade) can order the realization of a creative workshop directly within an hour. At the same time, it is possible to borrow methodical material for teachers at the InBaze office, on the basis of which the school itself can implement the program itself. More information here.
