In this session, teachers will engage in activities that will help them find their inner storytelling voice. This will enable them to tell stories in the classroom with more ease and confidence. They will also learn the art of looking into the eyes of their listeners, so everyone can share the tale together. Participants will leave with an understanding of how storytelling can be used to create empathy, connection, and community.
