Short Stories

Give one sentence to each student but not in the correct order.

 

Each student then reads out their sentence in turn.

By listening and understanding, the students have to put the sentences into the correct order and sit/stand beside the student who has the preceding sentence.

 

When they have done this, they read out the complete story.

 

Yesterday a man was walking in the park when he saw a gorilla.

He asked a policeman what he should do.

The policeman said: "You should take the gorilla to the zoo".

The next day the policeman was in the park when he saw the man again.

He was still with the gorilla.

"I thought I told you to take the gorilla to the zoo", he said.

"I did", said the man.

"He enjoyed it so much that today we're going to the cinema".
