Lesson Plan 1 Keep it simple and short.
Children like to hear their favorite stories over and over again. The experience can be even more wonderful when they practice telling stories themselves. Listening to and telling stories strengthens memory, concentration, and vocabulary skills. Here are some tips to get you started:
Your students need to hear your stories often. The repetition will help them memorize the stories and encourage them to repeat one of their favorites.
Keep the stories relatively short, but provide details to make them interesting. Your student will more likely tell the stories if you keep it simple.
Give them the opportunities to tell stories--in the classroom, encourage them to tell at home, or in front of other audiences. For example say, "Why don't you tell the story about Grandmother's Apple Pie."
Allow them to make up and tell stories of their own it they wish. Their imagination and creativity will get a workout!
Have them write their new stories out in simple language and add to them as their creativity sparks from the stories. This will improve writing skills.
