After studying the current research on literacy learning for young children, delving into the beliefs and schools of Reggio Emilia, and discovering the Maker Movement, the authors created StoryMaking. With great success, they implemented it in their diverse and large public school district.StoryMakingshares the processes, first steps, next steps, uses for materials, and lessons learned so teachers can implement their own versions in their classrooms. The book shares practical suggestions, student samples, photographs, anchor charts, and other forms of documentation.This first to market book introduces StoryMaking and the Makers Movement—a creative and technological revolution in education—young children through play to move them forward in their literacy learning.

  • First to market
  • The Makers Movement is a creative and technological revolution in education that encourages play with open-ended materials and inquiry. Typically associated with STEAM education, this movement overlaps with the natural learning inclinations of children and the power of learning by doing.
  • StoryMaking, a new term, celebrates the multimodal literacies and learning that are demonstrated by young children as they find, build, and share their stories. It uses story-retelling, creating stories, STEAM, and loose parts to encourage inquiry-based play to develop literacy
  • This strategy also aids in the development of 21st century skills
  • This book shares practical suggestions, student samples, photographs, anchor charts, and many other forms of documentation
  • 100+ full-color photos
  • Creating stories with objects, props, etc. for literacy development
