Program Theme
Creative Writing Using the Folktale as a Model
Program Description
While story telling can stand on its own, my preferred way to interact with the school is to introduce myself to the students by telling a variety of folktales and story-songs, (mostly African), then in the classroom I draw on 40 years of experience helping students to write stories in a way they will enjoy while learning.
