Stories spark conversation, connection, and confidence.
Welcome to the PLUS ME Project’s Story Spark Series!
PLUS ME activates the art of personal storytelling to support social and emotional wellness in middle and high school students. We believe everyone has a story to share and that every story matters.
Our new free Story Spark Series is designed to introduce the power of story to your classroom with short stories told by relatable role models. Students have an opportunity to explore the elements of personal storytelling and reflect on their own personal story.
OUTCOMES:
Students will identify the key story elements (Characters, Settings, Events, Lessons)
Students will watch a video of a storyteller and identify specific examples of story elements
Students will reflect, identify, and share key story elements of their own stories
HOW IT WORKS:
Each month, PLUS ME will release a new video featuring a 10-minute story from one of our facilitators. Along with the video, we also will provide a customized handout that students can reflect on and a teacher guide to support implementation of this program with students.
