Sharing books so children become familiar with stories.2. Story retelling where children repeat the story in their own words. Story sacks are ideal for this.3. Storytelling where children have to have their own ideas and are able to put them in a sequence to make a story.%u2022 All of these skills need practice and 3-5s benefit from appropriate adult support.%u2022 These ORAL story skills are also essential pre-reading and writing skills.
