STORY PROJECTS continues to use dramatised stories as the main source of input for the 8 – 10 age group.
The pupils develop their language competence on the one hand, by interacting with the stories through dialogue and reading and writing, original songs, and language games, and on the other hand by making links to other curriculum areas through additional topic work arising from the story themes.
Materials include an activity book, a set of 5 storybooks per year, a songs’ and stories’ audio CD and a CD Rom for the pupils and downloadable drama scripts, procedures and extra activities for the teacher. The materials were awarded with ‘The European Label for innovative projects in language teaching and learning’ and the CD ROM was the winner of English Speaking Union’s President’s award.
