Teachers: 11 Tips and Ideas on How to Use English Short Stories Book and Workbook in Class
Are you looking for interesting ways to make your lessons more enjoyable and engaging? If so, then using Engish Short Stories in class might be just what you need!
Read on for some great tips and ideas on how you can use our English Short Stories to make learning more fun and effective:
- Print the stories and exercises.
- Make photocopies for your students.
- As another option, you can project the stories on a screen in class.
- Use the stories and exercises as complete lesson plans.
- Encourage students to read (or re-read) the stories at home for extra practice, or as homework assignments.
- Have your students re-write the ending of a story. Provide writing prompts such as "a sad ending" or "an impossible to believe ending". (A writing prompt is a tip that provides a starting point for an original piece of writing.)
- Use the stories as a basis for class discussion or debating topics. This can help stimulate some lively discussions in class!
- Use the stories and exercises for "unseen" comprehension tests. ("Unseen" comprehension tests are tests in which the students have not seen the text before.)
- The English Short Stories Book and Workbook can also be used as English worksheets.
- Role-play the story dialogues with your students or let them do it in groups.
- Turn a story into a fun class skit. A skit is a short, funny play. Using skits in class is a great way to practice speaking English. The stories are short and humourous, so they are a great fit for this activity.
