Elizabeth Rose writes… In this podcast I hared my ideas on how to use storytelling in the classroom in a realistic way in order to help teach the mandated state curriculum. Many of the skills that teachers are held accountable for can be taught with the use of storytelling. Children respond to stories in the narrative form. Many teachers do not believe in their own storytelling abilities. More teachers need to be empowered to test their storytelling skills with their classes; the rewards are great.
Children also have the capability of becoming great storytellers. So many skills can be learned through storytelling such as plot, sequencing, vocabulary, story structure, characterization, point of view, figurative language, listening skills, the list goes on and on and on. Elizabeth will discuss the value of having youth storytelling clubs and educating more people about the opportunities for youth storytellers, such as the National Youth Storytelling Showcase.

Heather Forest writes… I enjoyed this conversation on the topic of sharing musical folk tales with young listeners. Music and children are an exuberant match. I have found in my storytelling experience with young people that melody, rhythm, rhyme, and repetition of musical refrains keeps young listeners listening. When my son Lucas was a three-year-old and already quite experienced listening to stories, he loved our story times and would often clammer, “Mama, sing me a story!.” From his listening point of view, speaking and singing in storytelling were all part of song. I named my first recording for young listeners “Sing Me a Story” after his way of Read more »

Reshaping classrooms with narrative pedagogy.
Mark Wagler writes… In the early 70’s, when I first felt the call of oral stories, I imagined being a traveling storyteller, a minstrel performing for new audiences in new places. After telling stories, teaching storytelling, and directing story collecting projects in more than 700 schools and at hundreds of museums, universities, festivals, libraries, historical societies, conferences, and other learning environments, I got tired of living on the road. I realized that many of my stories focused on a deep sense of community, and hungered to stay at home. In teacher workshops, I talked about deep applications of storytelling in all aspects of the Read more »
