Toyohashi JALT:

Storytelling in Language Teaching

Date: Sunday, April 16th, 2006 Time: 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Charles Kowalski

Description:
Everyone loves a good story! This workshop is for teachers interested in bringing the power of oral storytelling (personal anecdotes, folktales, jokes, or any other kind of narrative) into their classrooms. The first part will examine the linguistic, cultural, and personal benefits that storytelling can bring to a language class, and help participants develop their own natural storytelling talent through voice, gesture, memory, and other tools of the storyteller. The second part will present classroom activities to make stories easily understandable by learners of all ages and all levels, from beginning to advanced.
