Becoming a Story Sharer
Oral Storytelling• Gesture– Planned and
nonverbal• Sound– Pace, volume,
pause, pitch, end with silence
• Attitude – Comfort level– Associate attitudes
and images to aid memory
• Feedback– Audiences differ– Prepare listening,
but plan for distractions
– Let the story come differently each time
• Words– Choose, practice,
perform, adapt– Know first/last lines
“Storytelling is more than performance. It is event. Audience and teller interact … Storytelling is an audience-shaped art form.” (MacDonald 85)
Images enable us to learn stories more easily; attitudes help us tell them more
effectively.” (Birch 10-11)
