Storytelling at School

Podcast: Elizabeth Rose- Empowering Teachers to Use Storytelling in the Classroom

When searching on Yahoo!, I came across www.storytellingwithchildren.com , an online community of storytellers which has weekly podcasts regarding children and storytelling.

This particular podcast was selected to reiterate how using storytelling in school libraries and classrooms is an important vehicle in getting children excited about reading. Elizabeth Rose suggests having school storytelling clubs sponsored by a librarian or teacher, as storytelling provides so many opportunities to improve reading, speaking, and listening skills.
