Writing Workshops

Growing up in the Appalachian tradition of storytelling, I tell stories in my natural dialect. I perform folktales, ghost 'haint' tales, personal stories and student stories gleaned from my writing workshops.

In grades 3 - 12 the focus is on students writing a fictional story modeled after a Jack Tale (a folktale.  Pre-writing activities include development of characters, plot and story development. K- 2 focus is on the development of oral skills and sequencing where students create a Jack Tale picture book using simple shapes to draw characters.
