Storytelling and Art

Dear friends,

I have a request from another storyteller who is looking for ways to help art
teacher's incorporate storytelling into their curriculum. I did a quick
search on the net and came up with these links (listed below) that I thought
I would share with you. Does anyone else have ideas to blend art and the art
of storytelling? Many thanks for your suggestions.

Snow bound in lovely Massachusetts,

A terrific resource. The main site has a searchable database.

The LessonPlansPage. Lots of ideas here. This is one that could be used to
compliment some Australian tales.
