Using Stories to Aid Language Acquisition
2021 World Language Teacher Summit
Carolina and Valentina begin their presentation by talking about how they find inspiration for the stories they use with their students, before going on to discuss key considerations when you are creating a story of your own. They work through two step-by-step examples, the first using a song (which tells a story) and the second using a teacher-created story. Finally, they wrap up the session with examples of extension activities.
