Theory and Practice of Storytelling With Scratchjr to Develop Early Maths Skills

Abstract

This paper seeks to contribute to the debate surrounding children and digital storytelling by focusing on its application in preschool to develop early maths skills. Starting from a literature review, the paper describes a brief relevant question of how storytelling and teaching programming can be mutually supporting and outlines the educational potential of this approach. At the crossroads between the examination of some pedagogical practices, the paper shows a modality of didactic work that is relevant and practicable for conducting digital storytelling activities in the preschool.
