Story Sack | Learning To Read | NPT3
Season 2021
Episode 10
Use a pillowcase or drawstring back to make a storytelling sack. Fill it with toy animals, LEGO figures, or other small random objects. Each person takes a turn removing one object at a time. The first person uses the object to start a story. As each storyteller removes an object, she uses it as her prompt to add to the story. The person who pulls the last object from the bag ends the story.
