What Makes Story Quest Unique?
What Teachers are Saying:
How Story Quest Works
Title I and/or under-resourced schools complete an application to clarify need, demographics, and interest.
Once selected, classroom teachers enroll by providing contact information and class rosters
Classes receive 4 weeks of narrative writing lessons in the form of hilarious mini-podcasts created by the creators of the world-famous Story Pirates Podcast.
Students use Story Quest graphic organizers and story sheets to outline and write their original stories.
Teachers send each student’s story to Story Pirates who read and respond to every story with a personalized note of encouragement
6-8 weeks later, classes will receive a surprise final episode, custom-made for each classroom featuring the characters from Story Quest and identifying specific kids and stories submitted.
