Stepping Gently Outside of Your Comfort Zone! with Jenifer Strauss

So…you have been doing Storytime for years! You have a reliable plan and you have developed your own special storytime groove! That is wonderful! But…maybe it's time shake it up and try something new.
In this interactive webinar, Storyteller and Narrative Consultant, Jenifer Strauss will encourage you to step gently out of your comfort zone and create storytime programs with a new twist and some unique razz-a-ma-taz! Jen will be presenting innovative, "Out of the Box" ideas for storytime planning and model NEW use-right-away songs, stories and activities. This project is made possible by grant funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) administered by the State of Michigan through the Library of Michigan.

In this webinar you will:
• Learn how to insert cool yoga moves into your next storytime
• Add more movement using oddly interactive props and games
• Learn to use large group writing projects as a story time finale
• Sandwich each storytime with memorable beginnings and endings beyond songs
• Collaborate with community partners to offer a Pop-up Storytimes in new and different places!
