1) Play vocab game with the words on the handout. In two teams, the first to shout out the correct answer wins a point. If you say a then they have to shout out the name of the food (pizza). If you say chocolate, they have to shout out the letter (e). 2) Reading one. Tell the story as pupils tick which foods they hear. 3) Reading two. Tell the story as pupils write how many of each food they hear. 4) Reading three. Tell the story making lots of mistakes with days, amounts, food and pupils have to shout stop and correct you. 5) Ask if they are familiar with this story its basically the Hungry Caterpillar. If they dont know this book, show them. 6) Follow-up activity on handouts. 1) Tell the story of the pied piper. 2) Tell the story again as the pupils draw the route on their maps. 3) Follow-up activities. E.g. tell the story without the prepositions and using their maps the participants shout out the missing word. With a new map, pairs tell their own story and their partner draws the new route. 4) Introduce them to Rosie the Hen, another story with a route and lots of prepositions.

If they want to they can buy graded story books from publishers (examples in book box), but by being open to using L1 resources they will have a wealth of choice, and frankly better stories.
