Mary Hynes-Berry brings a lifetime of using oral storytelling to promote learning in her work with preservice and inservice teachers at Erikson Institute, Chicago, Illinois.
"Hynes-Berry offers practical ideas for working with teachers and
students in professional learning communities in preservice and
in-service education and with families, children and teachers in
innovative community literacy projects."--Young Children
"When children are given ample opportunity to use language, they
have a greater potential to increase vocabulary and syntactic
skills. Hynes-Berry's book offers numerous suggestions on how to
give students such opportunity. Her approach is practical, simple,
and is based on solid theoretical research on how young students
learn." --Teachers College Record
