This article talks about how promoting storytelling in the classroom helps promote children's creativity and originality. The teacher should encourage stroytelling acitivities and to prompt the kids to tell their made up story without influencing the content. Teachers should aslo send home copies of their stories so they can tell their story again at home. It is good for the kids to learn at school and then take what they have learned home with them, like with storytelling.
