DESCRIPTION: In this two day workshop, participants will explore how interactive storytelling is key in developing children's listening, speaking, and language skills as outlined in the Common Core Standards.
Particular attention will be paid to strengthening each teacher’s storytelling skills and identifying how specific techniques of audience participation support early childhood literacy and English acquisition.
Throughout the process, teachers will be asked to reflect on what they have led, give and receive constructive criticism, and discuss future applications. The overarching goals throughout are to help the teachers work in a student-centered manner, explore how to encourage and incorporate student’s responses, and tap into their own creativity.
