Teaching Purpose-Driven Storytelling
Every student has a unique story to tell. How can we help them tell their own stories meaningfully and well?
The act of writing can be deeply revealing, particularly for a young writer. How can we help students identify the stories they need to tell—the stories that make a difference to themselves, their families, their communities? How can we help them craft stories that resonate with their audience and cultivate a “writer’s voice” that speaks to a story’s authenticity? Here’s a collection of top-notch resources you and your students can use to help breathe life into their words as they put pen to paper.
