Here are some websites on storytelling. I think these sites will make reading and writing stories a little bit more fun and interesting!!!

Another way I want to teach storytelling is with the use of Ambiguous Figures. I would like to start with the pictures Paul showed us in class.

Another way I want to introduce storytelling in my classroom is by: first having the students play with Langton's Ants. After observing the ants in different scenarios, the students will write a story explaining how the ants reacted in different situations.

Here is a lesson plan page that has a GUIDED IMAGERY writing lesson.
