Introducing the Story Title by Using Picture Puzzle Game

This may sound strange, but I think this is so much fun. Instead of just telling what story your students will be listening/reading/watching, why don't you start a game? You can search for the games on the book or internet, or you can invent your own game.

A few days ago, I thought of an idea to use Picture Puzzle game in my classroom to have the students guess the title of a story. There was so much fun. They were happy and so was I.

How to use the game in the classroom?

If you are in the middle of searching a video to teach Narrative to your students, this post might help you. As we know, there are so many videos available on the internet. They are very useful. But sometimes, the excessive numbers of videos available may get you overwhelmed to choose one of the best. In choosing a video, you have to concern on the language quality and also the cultural context of the video. Therefore, you can present a good learning resource to your students which benefit their development in learning English.

If you are teaching in Indonesia, I recommend a video of a popular Indonesian folktale Timun Emas. This video has natural English with good grammar, easy vocabulary, and good pronunciation. So, it is very authentic.
