Complete instructions for teaching storytelling skills and performing are accompanied by dozens of reproducible activities and practical tips—from how to recruit members and how to adapt stories for telling to what to wear when performing, and fundraising ideas. Storytelling is a powerful teaching and learning tool. It increases literacy and language skills, builds creativity and imagination, instills confidence, encourages cooperation and collaboration—and it’s great fun for everyone!
