Storytelling & ELA
Did you know that the earliest forms of storytelling can be traced back 36,000 years? Modern storytelling uses voice, text, picture, gesture, emotion, and humor to foster empathy, create a community of listeners, and instill a love of language. Arts for Learning MA storytellers and authors bring students personal, multicultural, and historical tales; workshops on finding, shaping and performing stories; and programs on adapting stories to the page.
