This book is about the intersection of storytelling and science. Recognizing that humans are hard-wired for narrative, this collection of new essays integrates the two in a special way to teach science in the K-6 classroom. As science education changes its focus to concepts that bridge various disciplines, along with science and engineering practices, storytelling offers opportunities to enhance the science classroom. Lesson plans are provided, each presenting a story, its alignment with science (Next Generation Science Standards), language arts (Common Core State Standards) and theater arts standards (National Core Arts Standards). Instructional plans include a rationale, preparation, activities and assessment.
Jane Stenson is a pre-service and classroom educator, a storyteller and author. She lives in Mineral Point, Wisconsin. Sherry Norfolk, an award-winning storyteller and teaching artist, is an adjunct professor at Lesley University. She lives in St. Louis, Missouri. Lynette J. Ford is a fourth-generation Affrilachian storyteller, author and teaching artist with the Ohio Alliance for Arts Education and the Kennedy Center Ohio State-Based Collaborative Initiative in Columbus.
