“Storytelling/Story-Acting: The Powerful Strategy That’s Literacy & Social Emotional GOLD!”
Dr. Stephanie Goloway EdD

January 27th, 2025 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM (PST)

World-renowned early educator Vivian Paley’s strategy of storytelling/story-acting is simple, engaging, costs nothing, and has a mountain of evidence that links it with positive early literacy outcomes as well as social-emotional development. The process is easy: Children dictate individual stories and these are written down. Then the group gathers, and children are chosen to act out each character in the story as an adult reads the child’s words. You’ll feel confident enough to start using storytelling/story-acting with the children you work with tomorrow after this playful session.
