Description
Using storytelling tools to enhance learning both online and in the classroom.
Children love stories! They learn best through stories. This interactive workshop led by teaching artist Natasha Mirny will cover important tools that will help you become a better storyteller and engage your students in a creative and educational storytime. We will go over some new creative ideas of how we can keep students engaged and concentrated during both in-person and online learning. We will demonstrate how to incorporate chants, steady beat, simple props, movement, and even the online screen frame into the reading of any book. We will cover some simple but highly effective storytelling techniques that will allow you to easily incorporate math and science into your storytime with children.
