In this episode of NJEA's Classroom Close-up, students at Berkley and B.F. Gibbs elementary schools practice the art of storytelling among an audience. As part of Read Across America, students engage in a story festival where they present Anansi stories from West Africa. The stories are memorized and presented in the oral tradition including artistic expression. This festival allows students to show their creative talents, add personality, and practice public speaking.
