Once Upon a Time

Calling all educators enthusiastic about incorporating oral storytelling as part of their programming. We will explore how messages can be shared orally to create a sense of connection and community. Honour your voice and help students to find their voice. This session will focus on: Set the stage for shared storytelling. Find a spot - Settle the body - Tell the story - Reflect the mind - Awake with connection. Collaborate to support how students can find a connection to the land and each other through listening to oral stories, as well as telling their own stories. Explore resources to support oral literacy exposure that both connect to curricular outcomes and honour student interests. Be ready to incorporate oral storytelling into your day in various indoor and outdoor settings. Be inspired to use stories to explore: I notice. I wonder. It reminds me of.
