- Word Weaving: A Storytelling Workbook. Workshop Edition. Horne, Catharine Childrens Literature Creative Dramatics Elementary Education Fiction Folk Culture Narration Readers Theater Story Telling Tales Teaching Guides Teaching Methods Intended to provide a full range of storytelling techniques, this workbook includes 54 stories and their activities. Some stories are introduced with a fanfare and warmup section based on theatre games; some stories are preceded by commentary and source notes; and some folktales are retold with no preliminaries at all. About half of the stories suggested for telling are printed in the workbook; the other half are to be found in books generally available in the folklore section of a children's library. Creative drama is suggested as a follow-up activity for about half of the stories; the balance stand on their own simply as stories for telling. Stories are categorized in four lists according to themes: nonsense and repetition, new dimensions, adventure and trickster tales, and questing and the use of magic. Separate chapters provide techniques for storytelling and story theatre. (HOD)
