Story Telling Workshops
I know anyone can tell a successful story; you only have to be
in a pub for a while and listen to the conversations! I have run
several Story Telling Workshops for adults, focusing on
techniques and materials. Audiences have included teachers,
Forest School Leaders, parents and grandparents. These workshops
are becoming increasingly popular as they encourage adults to
quickly develop self-confidence and expertise in sharing
'quality' time with children by telling stories.
In schools I have run sessions for older children on story
telling. The aim is for these children to be able to confidently
tell a story in their own style to others. I have twice run a
Story Telling workshop for Gifted and Talented children from the
Severn Edge Cluster. In one of these sessions I prepared a story
on their class topic for each child to take back to their school
to tell to their peers.
I am happy to run a fun session at an Inset Day or lead a Staff
Meeting, looking at techniques and playing with ideas.
I could run a workshop for parents on telling stories.
How about a session for any adult group on being a Story Teller?
This would be a good team bonding opportunity for almost any
work place.
