Storytelling is powerful. With storytelling, we explore the many emotions and life situations a child is confronted with. For this reason, storytelling is an incredibly important part of a child’s social, emotional, and language development.

We look at approaches and ideas for storytelling that you can use in the TESOL young learners’ classroom. We consider criteria you can use to select appropriate picture books for storytelling as well as approaches, ideas and tips for using storytelling in your classroom.
