Storyteller
*Follow the directions below to form a CREATIVE presentation of your group's folktale.
1.  Meet with the technopro in your group.  Together, create a simple flowchart of events in order of their occurance.  Limit the sequence of events to the TEN most important.
2.  Pretend you are writing a children's book that simplifies the story.  With this in mind, come up with simple text for a ten-page book.
3.  Break away from the technopro.
4.  Using the simple text in #2, pretend you are truly presenting this story to an inquisitive child.  Come up with varied ways of keeping the child's interest.  Click here to find an informative website on storytelling techniques.
5.  For your group's story, try to change voices, add hand gestures, use props, develop a costume, etc.  Be prepared to present your creative interpretation of the group's story to the class in synch with the technopro's PowerPoint presentation.  You will be graded on story content as well as CREATIVITY in presenting the story.
