The common elements of good storytelling

The common elements of good storytelling
Storytelling is as old as any culture, but probably better preserved as a practice with First-Nations than European culture.
It was the primary way of passing along information, long before the written word even existed.
We’re still hardwired to learn better if someone’s words have meaning and emotion to them (proven with science!) because the use of narrative helps our brain focus. That’s because the neurons that fire when we’re listening to a story are the same ones that’d fire if we were actually doing what’s happening in the story.
So, what makes a good story? What are the common elements of good storytelling? Here are a few commonalities I’ve noticed while watching and reading my favourite storytellers.

Tell a four-word story
https://medium.com/design-story/tell-a-four-word-story-23845834503b
Tell a four-word story
This is aimed at companies marketing themselves ... but probably has relevance to being creative in classrooms ... such as telling a four word story about each curriculum subject ... or about fictional characters in a book ... or real people in history.

Traditional Storytelling
http://www.timsheppard.co.uk/story/dir/traditions/
Traditional Storytelling
Storytelling traditions vary all over the world, yet have many things in common. This section is an attempt to gather information on customs of the oral tradition world-wide. Many people today are rediscovering the pleasures of telling stories, after their culture has lost most of its traditional storytelling, yet cannot easily find out much about the countless millennia of oral traditions with all their wisdom and techniques. I hope this site will help you discover and appreciate something of the central role which traditional storytelling has played in most cultures, and in some places still does.

Tell a story in 5 frames (Visual story telling)
https://www.flickr.com/groups/visualstory/
Tell a story in 5 frames (Visual story telling) at Flickr
Tell a Story in 5 Frames has two important parts.
The first part is creating and telling a story through visual means with only a title to help guide the interpretation. The second part is the response of the group to the visual story.
The group response can take many forms such as, a poetic or prose rendering of the visualization, a critique on the structure of the story, comments on the photograph, or other constructive forms of response.
Telling and enjoying stories should create entertainment for the group as well as offer insight into the universal elements that help create a story for an international audience. The more people who respond , as either story tellers or respondents, the greater the reward for all.

Storytelling
http://www.42explore.com/story.htm
Storytelling
Storytelling is one of the earliest forms of folkart. Storytelling probably first consisted of simple chants that praised the dawn, expressed the joy of being alive, and were used to ease the drudgery and boredom of laborious tasks. Later the storyteller became the community entertainer by combining their stories with poetry, music, and dance. The storyteller also evolved into the group historian. This was the beginning of professional storytelling.
