- Holiday Storytelling: Once Upon a Time and long, long before there were movies, television,
radios, or even books, there were storytellers! The holidays are the perfect
time to rekindle this tradition of storytelling. Gifted storytellers, using
proven storytelling techniques, will draw even your most reluctant readers
into a tale during our Holiday Storytelling videoconference series.
Storytelling supports listening, vocabulary, prediction, sequencing, and
memory skills. It teaches students about the use of language, narrative
form, and values. Storytelling sparks creativity. These storytelling
videoconferences will incorporate oral stories into your holiday-time
curriculum as the storytellers delight and charm your students.
‘Tis the season to capture the holiday spirit by sharing with your students
the gift of stories that they'll appreciate for the rest of their lives.
Light up this holiday season with storytelling!
