Children learn best when curriculum is integrated. The Scottish Storyline method, developed thirty years ago in Glasgow, Scotland, uses the power of story to engage children and provide a meaningful context for teachers to deliver curriculum that mirrors real life. Storyline is an international methodology used in over a dozen countries around the world. The flexibility of the method allows teachers to meet the needs of all students in a way that is developmentally appropriate and child centered. This exciting way of working with children will reinvigorate your teaching and transform your classroom.

Storyline I is offered in person in Portland and Bend, Oregon each summer. It’s also available as a sponsored class.

This course will provide a refresher for people who are looking for the support of working through a new Storyline topic and the opportunity to write a new topic with the support of Storyline trainers. This course runs concurrently with Storyline I: An Introduction.

This course is structured in monthly meetings as a support for teachers using the Storyline method. Special topics to include: art and frieze techniques, key questions and incidents, structures, character creation and development, curriculum integration, evaluation and assessment, and designing new Storyline topics.
