Overview of Lesson • According to the textbook, in storytelling activities, learners tell stories relevant to the subject they are studying. (Pg. 184) • Objectives: • Students will be able to: • Contribute text stories • Tell stories from their own experiences • Present stories and discuss them • Publish stories as blog entries
Storytelling Grade Level: 6th Course: English
Resource/Materials • Students will tell a story consisting of a setting, characters, conflict, resolution and a moral. • Activities/Procedures • Students will come up with a story based on a life experience and make the story come to life. • Students will then choose characters to act out their story. • Upon choosing characters, students will then act out the story the storyteller is telling.
Storytelling • After each storyteller has finished, I will divide the students into small groups to talk about what they have learned. • After 15 minutes of discussion, I will ask each student to tell the class what story inspired them the most and what they have learned about storytelling. • Once the class discussion phase is over, we will then discuss different types of storytelling activities.
Wrap Up • Once this assignment is finished, students will research storytelling and write a 1 page paper about their storytelling experience and what they have learned through this experience. • ASSESSMENT/EVALUATION • By allowing students to tell stories based on personal experiences, this will show leadership skills and allow students to reflect an evaluate on great experiences.
Learning Through Storytelling • Through this assignment I have learned telling stories expresses leadership. • Storytelling expresses character. • Storytelling allows students to communicate thoughts and feelings.
Assessment of Storytelling • Established Goals: • Topic: Learning through Storytelling • Students will understand that: • Storytelling builds character and confidence • Storytelling allows one to be creative • Students will know: • How to tell a story • What a story consists of
Assessment of Storytelling • Essential questions: • Name the five parts of a story • Name two things storytelling builds • What have you learned about storytelling • What are some different type of storytelling activities
Through teaching this assignment I know I may experience some hardships but, I do not think this will be a hard assignment to teach. I believe storytelling will bring out the best in my students and me also. I believe these stories will help us bond and all come closer together.
