Hoopoe English Online: Wednesday Class

Welcome Class! How are you? We are more than ready for this new year with you.

Last year we faced many challenges and this one is going to be even more creative and intense.

We are welcoming some new students and creating a bigger community.

Todays activity will let us revise past and present simple, and also catch up with with you since the last time we have seen each other. We would love to know about your holidays! We are sure they are full of fun stories, but for this activity choose one.

As you can see, this are the stories we have created and we'd like to share with you (click to see them better).

Have you understood everything? Is it clear? If not, leave a question in the comments and we will gladly answer it as soon as possible.

Today’s activity

In this activity create a story in frames. It can be about something that happened in your summer holidays or an anecdote:

· In the first frame, explain where the story happens;

· In the second frame, what characters (people) are in the story and some characteristics (hair colour, eye colour, if they are happy, sad, brave, like adventures, etc.);

· In the third frame, explain the situation, how the story starts;

· In the fourth frame say how the characters in the story felt (if they were scared, angry, worried, calm, relaxed, having fun, etc.);

· In the fifth frame, how the story develops, what happens next, just before the ending;

· Finally, in the sixth frame, tell the ending of the story.

Take as an example our stories and after this you will find a template (the base for you to work on). Fill this template pictures by inserting them in the picture blanks (they can be your own or from the internet) and below (under the picture) tell your story.
