Ready to Read Skill: Storytelling (Narritive Skills)
Narritive Skills means being able to describe things and events and tell stories. Working on this skill will help your child understand what they are reading as they get older and move to more advanced books, because they will be able to recognize that stories have a beginning, middle, and end. Ways to improve Narritive Skills include telling your child what you are doing throughout the day, listening to them and asking questions, and encouraging them to tell stories. Another way to practice Narritive Skills is to take a favorite book and tell it or act it out in a different way like we did this week with Snowballs.

I found your blog by accident while looking for photos for my book review for the local paper. I really enjoy this format and content you provide! I am also a Library Assistant doing storytimes on a weekly basis and love the inspiration you provide here.
Thank You!
