Bristlecone Storytelling Festival

February2

The Clark County School District storytelling festival is an exciting, voluntary program offered to fourth through twelfth grade students. The students practice skills that support the district English/ Language Arts/Reading curriculum through the use of storytelling. Students present their stories to their peers who in turn vote on the two best storytellers to represent our school at the region festival. The Esco Storytelling Showcase will take place on Wednesday, March 11th from 3:30-4:30pm in the Escobedo Library. Voting will take place at that time. The Northwest region festival will be celebrated on Tuesday, April 28, 2020 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Students who are interested in this activity need to see Mrs. Baca for more details.

Guidelines for the festival:

The heart of The Bristlecone Storytelling Festival is the schoolwide celebration of storytelling. The region festival is a continuation of this celebration and being chosen by one’s peers is an honorary accomplishment.

Participating grade levels: Fourth through twelfth grades –Participant format: Solo or Buddy

Maximum time for performance: Five (5) minutes

School contacts/ facilitator: Mrs. Baca

Categories for storytelling: Fairytales, Folktales, Legands, Tall Tales, Fables, and Myths.

All stories must be retold from published material.
Student tells story to school facilitator before schoolwide festival.
The use of props, music, costumes and puppets is not allowed. The focus is on the story, not the storyteller. Storytelling is an oral tradition, not drama. At the Region Festivals, students will tell their stories at a stationary microphone.
Stories should be told free of negative stereotypical characterization; therefore, it is recommended that accents and dialects not be used unless it is an integral part of the story.
Listeners choose who goes to the schoolwide festival.
