Storytelling can give students with disabilities their wings. It addresses the whole brain, engaging all learning styles, and multiple ways of knowing. It allows teachers in self-contained and inclusive classrooms to reach children who have not responded to other strategies, providing students with differentiated ways to achieve and demonstrate understanding. In this interactive webinar, participants will explore storytelling strategies that authentically address the Common Core State Standards for English/Language Arts in the primary grades. In the process, they'll learn a story that they can immediately take into the classroom -- and most importantly -- participants will discover how storytelling can help children with disabilities learn to FLY!
When: May 19, 2015 from 3 - 4pm
Presenter: Sherry Norfolk, Storyteller, Author, and Teaching Artist
Intended Audiences: Teachers, teaching assistants, and teaching artists who work in inclusive and/or self-contained classrooms serving primary-age children; education administrators who control access to arts-integration funding and opportunities; representatives of state and regional arts councils.
Level Addressed: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced participants will all benefit.
