Character Education through Storytelling

11:15 a.m. | 90 minutes

How can responsible adults/educators in still in children crucial values? In his book, The Moral of the Story, Bobby Norfolk provides a user-friendly, hands-on approach to using storytelling to teach character education traits in preschool to high school classes. Bobby will show how to use folktales to inspire, engage, inform, and provide a positive social environment in and out of school. Stories teach ethics and virtues in ways that are fun, non-didactic and effective. This workshop, whether used in the classroom, home or community, provides essential guidance in helping children develop moral values such as respect, cooperation, teamwork, and responsibility, as well as the problem solving skills required to make principled judgements. Teachers will also find hidden pathways towards enhancing literacy and the art of active listening.
