Abstract	This project is about exploring and strengthening young children's story-telling expertise. Building on research that shows that children's narrative competence is linked to later literacy learning at school, we wanted to understand more fully how conditions for literacy learning are, and could be, supported within early years education settings. Using a design-based intervention methodology and a multi-layered analytical approach we observed and analysed story-telling episodes within early childhood settings and classrooms to understand, within these episodes, the contributions of contexts and story-partners for children's early development of narrative competence. Our aim was to contribute to the international literature and develop storying strategies with and for teachers. This research has built on a collection of prior TLRI studies that have researched languages and literacy at a number of levels of early childhood and school. Two major research questions guided this project: (1) What storying opportunities exist in early years settings and what happens in them? and (2) How can these opportunities be strengthened? (ERIC).
