We share stories all day long for various reasons. We want our friends to be on our side and we want our students to feel seen and understood. Honestly, storytelling is my favorite WHY. I also think it’s the most important in this new age of AI and fake news...

5 strategies for encouraging personal storytelling in your classroom:

1- student reminder

2- mentor text

3- talk it out

4- prompts or games

5- ask a question

What stories do you want students to share? What ideas are bouncing around in your mind? Let me know… head over to Instagram and shoot me a DM letting me know!  @inspired.to.enrich

I hope that you will subscribe or follow this podcast as we continue this writing series. Our final part will come on June 30 and is all about communication… plus, I have a big announcement to share. If you listen on the day the episode airs, there’ll be a little surprise just for you!

Remember,  It’s essential that we start teaching students how to write their ideas, communicate, brainstorm and transition that into something purposeful. Using 21st century writing strategies is the most effective way to uncomplicate writing lessons and support student success.
