This year’s #WorldStorytellingDay theme is “Deep Water.”
Oral storytelling builds comprehension, vocab & background knowledge—bridging spoken & written language. Honoring cultural stories helps students see themselves in literacy while expanding their understanding of others.

Our department had the pleasure of meeting Michael and enjoying his book "I Belong: Can I play?". Michael has an intellectual disability and autism so when it comes to school, sports, and all the fun things children do – he learns in a different way. Thank you for sharing!
