Two summers ago I attended a wonderful storytelling workshop for =
teachers. I am really pleased to be able to pass along information =
about this summer's opportunities.

Susan Danoff is a storyteller whose organization, Storytelling Arts, =
Inc., works with schools, teachers and students -- often in "at risk" =
situations -- bringing the joy and magic and power of story to =
schoolchildren. I am not an early childhood teacher, but I have heard =
amazing stories of growth from those who do -- growth in literacy, in =
understanding, and in interactions with others.

After attending Susan's Summer Institute, I brought back to my (10 and =
11 year old) students a greater comfort and confidence with story and =
storytelling, and some wonderful ideas that resulted in amazing poetry =
and extraordinary masks created by the students.

If you are a teacher -- or if you storytellers know of any teachers who =
might be interested -- Susan is currently accepting applications. The =
Institute is held at Princeton University for a week in the summer; this =
year there is one residential program for people who live too far away =
to commute.

If you are interested, please look at her website at =
www.storytellingarts.net or contact her at storyarts@aol.com

You can also reach her at 609 430-1922

or

PO Box 135
Kingston
NJ 08528

Also, I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about being a =
participant!

Ann
