Part 4

NARRATIVE

At Eastwards Consortium, our focus is primarily on educating and developing the next generation of our society. This section showcases off our ‘Wellcomm Primary’ activity set, and below you will find a set of tabs which depict these tasks further. If you find children are struggling with a task or, on the other hand, passing with flying colours, indications and suggestions are proposed in each section to ensure you keep all children challenged and on-task as much as possible.
To view the various parts of each activity, simply click on the respective tab and watch it magically appear!

TO BE ABLE TO TELL A NARRATIVE STORY

MAIN ACTIVITY

  • Tell the child the story of ‘The Gingerbread Man.’
  • Explain to the child that you will be making a story map to help you remember parts of the story.
  • Example of a story map:
  • Once the story map has been completed, ask the child to retell it to you using the pictures on the story map.
  • Repeat the sentences back to the child ensuring that the child is using correct tense and interesting adjectives.

HOW CAN I MAKE THE ACTIVITY MORE CHALLENGING?

  • Tell the child to create their own story map for a story of their choosing.

HOW CAN I MAKE THE ACTIVITY MORE CHALLENGING?

  • Use the story grid to re-tell a real-life event. For example, waking up and going to school.
