Narrating a short story

This is again a brilliant animation from Ideas to Inspire.



It could be used when teaching house and bedroom in another language, as well as verbs in the present tense.
After watching it, students would have to:

  • describe the bedroom/ the characters
  • write a narration for the story in the present tense
  • think of an alternative ending
What does this animation inspire you to do with your students?

Kenny, I have not tried it with students yet but can't wait to see how they react!

This would be great for reviewing the preterit and the imperfect in Spanish, as well as reflexive verbs for describing one's morning routine. Perfect!

Marcy, good point. I was thinking of more "basic" Spanish but this animation offers lots teaching opportunities!
