Due to the overwhelming popularity of ‘Talk to the hand – using puppets in primary languages’, we are happy to announce a re-run of the event in the CILT Library on Wednesday 15 July.

We hope this will enable those who were unable to attend last time to come along.

Programme: Stephen Novy of Pekko’s Puppets will open the event by demonstrating the activities that he offers to schools. He will also give a brief puppet show performance. In the second part of the session, Lucy Adamson, Primary Language Teaching Adviser at CILT, will show you how to make a range of puppets from simple, accessible and affordable materials.

You will then have the opportunity to make these puppets yourself before Ruth Churchill, CILT’s information Officer for Primary Languages, guides you through the NACELL collection’s resources on puppets and related activities.

When: Wednesday 15 July 2009. Refreshments from 4.30pm – the session will start at 5pm. The library will close at 7pm.

How to book: This event is free but places are limited. Register your place by emailing ruth.churchill@cilt.org.uk with your name and the subject ‘CILT Library puppets’.
