Workshop: Strategies for Spanish Story time

This event is expired.

Cotati Community Center
201 W Sierra Ave
Cotati, CA 94931

Books stimulate intelligence, creativity, imagination, verbal capacity and concentration in little ones. But, what book should we read?, How do you read to children? What determines interest within the child? The topic of interest?  The narrator?

This workshop, presented in Spanish, is targeted to teachers, parents, babysitters or anyone that works with early age. During our 3 ½ hour workshop we will provide participants with practical and SIMPLE strategies which will afford them the opportunity to put in practice their natural abilities as storytellers and actors. We will present tools that will help to develop the interest in stories from a young age.

Objectives:

Participants will learn effective techniques for the varying of voices during the telling of a story

How to tell the same story in entirely new ways

Making connections between the story and other materials

What books to choose for native and non-native Spanish speakers

Telling stories through felts

Integrating music and movement into your story time

Developing your own version of a story

Rhymes, poems and riddles

Create small play performances based on a story

Each participant will bring home a new story to home or the classroom ready to tell. A list with a wide range of books and ideas shared during the workshop will be provided.
