Storytelling
December 17, 2018Everyone can tell a story
What place does storytelling have in your classroom. This isn’t just about a personal story but perhaps another persons story that is expressed through an artwork, music piece, dance or theater. Then there is the reciting of poetry or existing stories. Comedian, John Branyan tells the story of The Three Little Pigs as it would have sounded if written by Shakespeare. Consider how this idea might be used in your class.
Warning: This video isn’t for every audiences.

Tell The Story
July 6, 2018Consider this project
In a recent newsletter from the National Endowment for the Arts there was a feature article on a 7th grade photography student from Detroit. What would it take for you to consider doing something like this? Perhaps select one student to highlight, work with the technology yourself or team up with other staff to facilitate. Better yet, look to your students to take the lead and create similar documentation. Have your students help tell each others stories. DonRico Hawkins, Jr. story might inspire you. DonRico’s story and others are pat of a program funded by the NEA called Focus: HOPE Excel Photography program. The video is featured in the new issue of NEA Arts.
