- This activity begins in earlier classroom experiences. This is such a beautiful practice that reaps so much benefit and connectedness that it should be a part of child's experience inside and outside the classroom.
- This activity can be done with one child or with a small group of children, or even the whole class. If you give are telling a story to more than one child, have the children sit in a semi-circle around you. This allows the children to see your gestures and facial movements, which then help each child to understand the meaning of the story.
- The stories should be about reality, whether true or fictional.
- Telling stories can be done adult to child or with two children as partners.
- This is also a good activity to do with children who seem to be wondering aimlessly around the classroom.
