Storytelling

up to 3rd grade

$240.00

Recognizing that a strong foundation in language arts in earlier years is crucial for becoming effective communicators later in life, we designed this program to support K-3 graders in improving their reading comprehension as well as developing oral confidence necessary for public speaking through storytelling, poetry recital, and reading aloud techniques.

Given the wide arrange of differences between children just starting school (K- 1st grade) and older children (2nd – 3rd grades), we will split these young learners into two separate cohorts to make sure their unique needs are met. Please select carefully in the dropdown menu below your preferred class time for the age group your kid belongs to.

Classes 7-8:

Reciting poetry is a great way to build speech and presentation skills. It familiarizes students with patterns of language, which in turn helps them speak well, read well, and write well.
