Folk Tales/Storytelling: Past and Present Project Folk
Tales/Storytelling: Past and Present is an iEARN project that
aims to encourage students between the ages of five and eighteen
to read folktales from their heritage and afterwards, have
students of different cultures exchange stories with each other.
This project makes sure to take full advantage of the technology
available to them by sharing stories with the global community
through Skype, the Collaboration Center, and digital media
presentations as well as more traditional methods of
storytelling such as simply sitting in a circle and listening to
each other, drawings, and acting. Folk Tales/Storytelling hopes
to engage students in exploring their own cultures and
traditions while also learning about and understanding the
cultures of others from around the world. If you would like to
