    dc.descriptionIn this chapter we explore the potential of storytelling as a means to bridge this gap between local knowledge acquired in daily living, and the knowledge taught to children in schools. We demonstrate how storytelling, commonly used in familial contexts, can be applied in primary schools to enhance children’s participation and creativity in learning. We argue that connecting the local knowledge of children to their learning situations in schools narrows the gap between classroom learning activities and social and cultural practices and values and enhances children’s participation and creativity in the classroom.en_US
