Storytelling Course
This course is about standing in front of a group TELLING a story. It's a powerful way of teaching, and it's a skill that is useful way beyond the classroom.
For young children learning English, the teacher can tell a story - along with actions, voices, faces ... the whole bit - to get them interested in a book to read. By the time the book is in their hands, they already know a lot of the vocabulary from watching the storyteller, and they are eager to see the pictures and read the words.
Here is the PowerPoint in the form of JPEGs so that you can view them right here on the site. (Just click on each one to see them larger). And then the downloadable PowerPoint file (with notes) is below.
Below that are the Facilitator's Manual and Participant's Notes.
