#3 Storytelling MTB-ME

1. Describe an excellent storyteller 2pts

             The excellent storyteller is the one who can catch the attention of her audiences. And her audiences feel the emotions of the story that she told. She also listens to her audience, and therefore knows when to elaborate and when to move on.

The excellent storyteller should send the story honesty and sincerely. They put together gestures, body language, eye contact, facial expressions and projection of the voice to deliver their story well.

2. Remember that the first step in being a good storyteller is finding the right books. List down at least 10 book titles and authors appropriate for the age bracket you’re handling in practicum. 5pts
