English Learners Love Family Storytelling Night Too!
Thinking of Hosting a BILINGUAL
Family Storytelling Night?
Expect SUCCESS if you Do!
Continues at Home…
The storytelling tradition born at Family Storytelling Night (in your classroom, lunchroom, gym, or other meeting space) grows and bears fruit for the families at home after the event — in the form of continuing family-literacy enhancement, school/community connection and an ongoing celebration of individual, family, and community history/heritage/culture.
This is especially true if you augment, replace, or extend an initial fully-facilitated Family Storytelling Night event with the SYSTEM of supports offered to select programs/schools to further empower your families and community partners to maximize the benefits of interactive story sharing all year long.
Families thrive when programs and schools connect them to meaningful supports in their communities that really work. Family Storytelling Night events — tried, tested, and perfected for 20+ years — are especially useful for programs and schools serving bilingual and immigrant families.
