Rachael’s interactive storytelling assembly programs are 45 minutes of pure story magic!

In her energetic storytelling assemblies, Rachael brings world folk and fairy tales to life through call-and-response, rhythm, and audience participation. Performances are designed to promote learning, literacy, and social emotional goals that your school wants to highlight, and are the perfect way to celebrate special occasions such as Read Across America, Women’s History Month, Earth Day and more!

Every classroom becomes a launch pad of student engagement and creativity when Rachael comes to visit!

Bring Rachael in for a day of up-close classroom visits that give students a front row seat to the power of storytelling and the traditional art of folktale storytelling.

Each classroom visit is 45 minutes long, and Rachael’s visit days start at three classroom periods/day. You can add more class periods, package a series of days, and combine class visits with assembly programs and professional learning.

Contact Rachael today to build your classroom storytelling visits.

What if the transformative power of storytelling reached every child in every classroom of your school?

With Rachael’s most popular school offering, you can skyrocket your student engagement and support literacy and SEL through a high impact assembly programs day that then leads into Rachael visiting every classroom for up-close storytelling in the subsequent days.

By the end of The Storied School Bundle, your students will be empowered to know that, “I’m a storyteller, your’re a storyteller, we are aaalllll storytellers!”

If you are looking for an in-depth experience with the learning gains and student engagement that storytelling brings, Rachael’s half or full school year residency programs are your answer!

Rachael’s Residency Programs:

• Story Box: Rachael visits early learner classrooms once a week, presenting world folktales with tons of participatory energy, story props and puppets, simple rhythm, rhyme, and music, and oodles of call-and-response.

• World Stories Alive: Over a series of 12-14 weeks, Rachael works with upper elementary students to teach them the art of telling a story. At the end of the residency, each student has learned a folktale and can tell it out loud in front of a group of listeners! This residency is rich in literacy, social emotional learning, and public speaking skills building.

Contact Rachael today to book your half or full year residency.

Storytelling gives your teachers the tools to help make their hard work land in the minds and hearts of their students… and it works across all subject areas, not just ELA! When lessons are wrapped in story, students pay attention, remember what they learned, and actually care.

Bringing in a professional storyteller to teach your teachers means your staff learns storytelling the way it was meant to be experienced: out loud, in the room, with real technique behind it.

This isn’t a sit-and-watch workshop. Rachael guides k-5 teachers through the hands on skills of how to hold a room, build a story that serves the lesson, and use their own voice as a teaching tool. Teachers leave with techniques they can use the very next day.
