    Free VSA Webinar - Teach them to FLY! How Storytelling Gives Wings to Primary-age Children with Disabilities

    Posted Sunday May 10 2015 at 10:11 pm

    VSA Webinar Series

    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
