August 27, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
| FreeStorytelling for Strong Communities
Telling our stories is powerful. It helps us learn about ourselves. It helps us connect with others. It helps us process ideas and make meaning of the world.
Participants are invited to engage in a live online session and asynchronous learning activities in which we will:
- Explore community writing, book making, poetry and story slams, and other ways to create spaces for sharing stories in community
- Engage in writing and telling our own stories! Read and listen to stories from our peers!
- Consider various approaches, resources, and strategies to incorporate storytelling in our classrooms and schools with our students, families, and colleagues
