The theme of this thesis is storytelling – Croscurricular approach. The concept of storytelling and how we can use it in teaching are explained. Storytelling is considered an art of communicating stories, events or situations orally or in writing. We can tell stories in a number of ways. The paper presents two ways of storytelling in teaching, namely traditional and digital storytelling. Each method is explained separately and supported by examples. Traditional storytelling in teaching refers to the transmission of stories or events using narrative techniques (storytelling, description, dialogue and monologue). Digital storytelling refers to storytelling using digital tools. Digital storytelling is increasingly present and acceptable in class. The paper cites and explains the importance of storytelling as content for achieving educational outcomes in the Croatian language case. The role and objective of storytelling in all other teaching courses are also mentioned and explained. The focus is on storytelling in the classroom, so the role of the teacher as a storyteller conveys a story, event or experience to the students is explained accordingly. The teacher plays an important and crucial role in storytelling. He´s the one who picks the story or event that he passes on to the students. Its role is to present certain content with a lot of creativity and love. The aim of this paper is to explain the importance of storytelling in primary school education, to emphasize the power and role of storytellers and to encourage the most creative approach to the story. By storytelling, we offer students a break from reality and the possibility to enter the world of imagination. By including storytelling in classes, students have the opportunity to adopt teaching content in an easier and more interesting way. Narration contributes to the development of motivation and curiosity among students. It has the power to create a pleasant classroom atmosphere and a positive atmosphere.
