Story Maker and retelling.

Students will make their own story using the Story Maker application from the British Council’s website. They can make three types of stories: a fairy story, a horror story, or a science fiction story. Once they have created the story they will work in groups of three, they will exchange the stories and read them individually.

Retelling is a methodology used to assess how well a student has comprehended a story. In this activity students will not only work on their reading skills, but also on their speaking skills. Click the link
