Helping Families Support
Literacy Through Storytelling
Susan Kaplan
Stories stir our imagination, create connections to culture,
family history and others, and helps develop literacy
skills. School success has pointed to the importance of
family involvement within the home and the richness of story
sharing in daily family life. Help your parents and extended
families learn how to use their own personal and cultural
stories to support their child's school learning.
Storytelling and story listening encourages children to
become active learners and to develop a positive role for
parents. Stories, interactive activities, and story idea
handouts are used to engage and encourage parents to become
storytellers in the home. This program can also be expanded
to include parents and students of any age. Bilingual
resources are also available for Spanish Speaking audiences.
