  Inculcating principles of environmental stewardship among the children and
youth is needed urgently today for creating a sustainable future. This paper
presents a model for promoting environment literacy in India using story
telling based workshops while focusing on STEM education including
computational thinking, robotics and maker skills. During the workshop,
participants build a robotic diorama with digital animations and animatronics
to tell their story. Our initial observations from pilot studies conducted in
2019 in six rural and semi-urban schools in India showed us that the children
were deeply engaged and enthusiastic throughout the workshop making the entire
learning experience a very meaningful and joyful one for all.
