Story Boards Build Fluency
Here is a link to a video showing three Barrington grade 4 classes and three Barrington Grade 5 classes working with Kate Hastings from the UAPL on story telling. The classes had three sessions with Kate. The used traditional folktales, made them into story boards and practiced retelling them. the video shows the work so far. There will be some groups who will practice using the ipod and video camera to get their stories into performance quality. We were impressed with the aid to fluency story boards gave to the student.
Scholastic has published a book--Visual Tools for Differentiating Reading & Writing Instruction: Strategies to Help Students Make Abstract Ideas Concrete and Accessible by Roger Essley--I am including a link to the Storyboard section which is very informative.What are Storyboards and Tellingboards?
