Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket -- Video

This video is a student retelling of Jack Finney's classic, "Contents of the Dead Man's Pockets." It's quite cheesy, and the conclusion doesn't quite line up with Finney's story, but it's a fun adaptation nonetheless.

Storytelling -- Why It Matters -- English II

Telling stories is one of our favorite pastimes. Everyday we either tell a story, listen to one, or see one. As a society, we consume movies, music, books, graphic novels, and plays with a voracious appetite.

Storytelling is important to people because it is a way for us to connect to one another. By relating experiences, either made up or real, we are able to learn, explore and better understand the world we live in as well as our place in it.
