The authors have worked together since 1986, though not always in the same building, and not always in the same area or even zip code. Over the years their titles have changed, as well as their employers, not to mention their roles and responsibilities. But there is no getting around the fact that when asked what has been keeping either one of them busy for the last 20 years, they must admit: Houston area early childhood classrooms and the stories young children tell and act out. The dictated and dramatized stories comprise Vivian Paley's "storytelling curriculum," which the authors have been exporting to teachers' classrooms for two decades. In this article, the authors offer a summary of the storytelling process and a step-by-step methodology. In addition, since any good idea in early childhood education is also a good story, the authors also include some background as to how the storytelling curriculum shaped their teaching and professional biographies.
