B2.1 - Telling Stories

In class we've been working with telling stories. Remember the chart I gave you:
  • STRUCTURE: 
    • introduction: give details about the setting (when, where, who was there...)
    • what happened: keep in mind that the readers don't know anything about the story and you should their guide. Don't leave anything for granted.
    • ending the story or a kind of conclusion
  • GRAMMAR CHARACTERISTICS:
    • use past tenses principally (simple, continuous, perfect, perfect continuous) in active and passive if possible
    • you may use direct and indirect speech (remember introductory verbs followed by -ing or infinitive: suggest, warn, remind, etc.)
  • VOCABULARY:
    • variety of sequence connectors: first / then / after ... / later / when / before / finally / in the end
    • other connectors: so / as / although / because / not only ... but ... / so - such ... that / however, / in order to / so as to / ...., though / if / as soos as / unless
