Story Telling, Story Acting: Introduction, Roll Out, Model Lessons
Rating

Storytelling/Story Acting (STSA) is a simple movement based on the work of Vivian Paley. STSA involves children dictating stories to adults, followed by a teacher-facilitated acting out of children’s stories at meeting times throughout the day. STSA develops narrative fluency, the concept of a story, and the opportunity to express emotions and experiences. There is no need for rehearsal or special props and stories can be acted out anywhere. It is however, important to designate a “stage” and develop a routine around STSA.

"On our new Story Time With Panorama Education resource library, we have curated a group of stories designed to help educators and parents combine literacy and SEL. (Of course, we also have a few that are simply meant to be read for pleasure and to make us laugh!) In order to support educators and caretakers develop “master readers,” our team wanted to share a few of our favorite children’s books with you and the children you support.

You will notice that the stories we chose will also highlight characters' thoughts, challenges, and emotions. Talking through these with your students or children will help develop those SEL skills. We have also created an accompanying guide outlining best practices in building literacy to support you as you use the videos."
