Dear educator / parent / carer,
At
Le Petit Monde Stories, we are passionate about language learning through play. We believe every young child who is learning a language needs opportunities to engage with accessible and bilingual stories so they can safely, playfully and confidently explore the language at their level of development and at their own pace.
In practice, this can be achieved through the Creative Puppetry for Languages method I have developed through research, which is based on bilingual storytelling - and particularly Translanguaging - creativity and play. Educators also found our innovative approach to be inclusive, cross-curricular and accessible.
One strand of our work will be to support French learning and teaching through our unique Creative Puppetry for French toolkits. By filling in this short survey, you will help us shape the content of these toolkits according to your needs, as a professional educator, parent or carer.
With the aim to support the Early Years community, we are turning Le Petit Monde Stories into a not-for-profit social enterprise. So your thoughts are really important to us. Please be honest and give us as much information as possible...
Your responses will be anonymously and confidentially used to help us develop our French Toolkits.
Should your words be quoted in any of our published works, your name will be replaced with a pseudonym. Your responses to this questionnaire will be used for this project only and will be stored securely. While answering the following questions, you should feel free to say whatever you like. You are free to withdraw consent at any time.
