may be useful as an activity for a volunteer or teacher's aide to use with a small
group of ESL students during literacy time. Here are the steps.

1. Experience something — for example, the students have listened to the
story, "The Little Red Hen" and then acted it out.

2. The teacher stands by the board or a large sheet of paper and says to the
students, "Tell me the story of the Little Red Hen."

3. As each student tells a part of the story, the teacher writes it down on the
board, just as it was stated. For example, a student might say, "The Little

Red Hen work so hard and nobody want help her." This continues until each

student has spoken or the story is finished.

4. Then the teacher tells the students, "Let's read the story together and listen

to see if the story makes sense and if there is anything we want to change."

5. After reading the story, the teacher asks students if they want to change
anything. For example, one student may raise her hand and say, "I think it

should say, "worked" not "work." The teacher may ask other students if they
agree or disagree.

6. If the suggested change is correct, the teacher offers praise and moves on to
the next suggestion. If the suggested change is not correct, the teacher

should help the student analyse the suggested change. For example, if the

student says, "I think it should say, The Little Red Hen she worked so hard."
The teacher would ask if others agree and see if there is discussion, then the

teacher could point out that the Little Red Hen is the pronoun or "name," so
in English we don't need to put it in twice. We can say "She worked so hard."

Or "The Little Red Hen worked so hard."

7. When students have analysed and corrected the whole text, the teacher may

either circle a few more spots where students missed corrections and they
can be challenged to figure out what the change should be, or the students

can be instructed to copy the text with the corrections included.

8. As a final activity, students are instructed to take the story home and read it

to three people and bring it back with signatures.
