  7. Story Sacks

  8. What is a story sack? • Story sacks are made up of a large bag containing a quality storybook with supporting materials, such as puppets, backgrounds and a game to stimulate reading/language activities. • A tape normally accompanies the story so that children can listen to the story and act it out.

  9. The Goals of a Story Sack • To excite the reader and get them involved in their learning. • To provide children with materials to retell a story. • To get parents involved in reading with their children and help them learn how to retell a story.

  10. Connecting Story Sacks and Self-Assessment • At the beginning of the year the story sack is introduced and modeled to the class. • Eventually students start to read and act out the stories on their own. • Through this experience and continued modeling, children will learn the key parts in retelling a story: • setting • character • main idea • author’s purpose • character problem/solution • making a connection • Once the retelling procedure has been in place, students will be able to assess themselves with a partner using a checklist. • Towards the end of the year the children will be able to take home a story sack along with a letter explaining the story sack and the procedure. At home students will use the story sacks to retell stories with their families.

  11. What’s the Importance? • Through excitement the child starts to take control of their own learning experience. • Story sacks promote a love and excitement for books. • Not only do they reinforce retelling skills, but they also help create a foundation for reading, listening, and communicating. • Story Sacks provide parents with an opportunity to share a reading experience with their children in a new way.
