The #1 …… (story for predicting)
** Not your ordinary, endless list – just what’s number 1.
The Eyebrow Story by Peter Reynold’s
This story highlights the power of prediction for engaging students in a story and prompting them to produce language. Simply get a student as a reader (with a microphone if possible). Read together and stop at certain points. Ask students in groups of pairs to state in English, what will happen next…. Then continue reading and check. They’ll fall in love with Sean!
Predicting is a great way to “teach” a story! Peter Reynold’s has many more amazing stories. See hundreds more TOP ebooks on our Story page.
