Importance of Retelling Stories:

Retelling stories is a vital part of early years learning as it:

• Strengthens Understanding – Helps children process and internalise key events, characters, and themes.
• Develops Narrative Skills – Encourages understanding of story structure (beginning, middle, and end).
• Enhances Oral Language – Builds confidence in speaking, expressive language, and storytelling.
• Improves Memory & Sequencing – Assists in recalling details and organizing thoughts logically.
• Encourages Creativity – Allows for variations, new endings, and personal connections to the story.

These skills support literacy development and ensure students can comprehend and engage with texts in meaningful ways.
