![]() If you have recording facilities the students can perform and record their radio drama to listen to in class. Another interesting spin-off is to get students to rewrite their stories as a radio drama.This activity can also be easily developed into a creative writing activity, either individually as homework or as pair or group writing practice. At the end of the activity the class could vote on the best stories in different categories, for example the most creative story, the most interesting story, the funniest story, the best told story etc.Next get the students to create their own stories in pairs or small groups and once the students have created their stories, they can retell their story to you, the rest of the class or to other groups. Another variation is to get students to create story grids for each other to use.The first time you do this activity you can use the example story grid below and model the story telling part of the activity for the students and then give the students another example story grid from the worksheet to use, or you can easily create your own story grid.Students can use any vocabulary or grammar they want to but they have to include all the words in the story grid. Explain to the students that the aim of the activity is to create a story using all the words in the story grid.You can recycle vocabulary that students are currently working on in class in the story grid, but to ensure that students can create a good story you should include a mixture of words, such as people and place names, verbs, nouns, adjectives etc., and it is usually good to throw in words that might give the story a bit more spice, such as crime, love, hate, murder, theft, robbery, broken-hearted, treasure, accident, etc.You can make your story grid any size you want but the bigger the grid is the more complicated the activity will become. First of all draw a grid on the board and then put one word in each box.It is a low preparation but high output activity which can be used with teens and adults. ![]()
