Using Stories in the Languages Classroom

Presented by Heidi Crawford, Angela Evangelinou-Yiannakis, and Filipa Pinto

Stories are one of the most powerful tools we have for building language, culture, and connection. In this practical and inspiring PL session, Heidi Crawford, Angela Evangelinou-Yiannakis, and Filipa Pinto will explore how narrative can transform learning in any language classroom.

Participants will unpack a range of story‑based strategies—from simple routines to rich, immersive tasks—that support comprehension, creativity, and student engagement. Whether you teach primary or secondary, beginners or advanced learners, you’ll walk away with ready‑to‑use ideas that make language learning meaningful and memorable.

Held at UWA’s School of Graduate Education. Conference Room Level 2.
