In the introduction to The Life of Pi, Yann Martel writes that "stories - individual stories, family stories and national stories - are what stitch together the different elements of human existence into a coherent whole." The stories of individuals provide intimate perspectives on the life and character of a person perpetuating his or her individuality while affirming our common humanity, yet too often storytelling is missing from social studies instruction. Stories allow us to highlight individual moments and contributions, key decisions and events in history, while at the same time helping students to make connections by highlighting the trends, the themes, and the processes that are consistent across time and place.

Presenter: Lorraine Lupinskie, Director of Social Studies, Half Hollow Hills Central School District.
