Teacher Notes
Objectives & Sequence: This lesson is intended to be used as a review of Grammar - Past Simple.
The following vocabulary words are used in this activity:
Students work in pairs. On each tab, two photos are displayed along with sentences that describe the photos. Students must create stories that connect the two photos together.
One student starts the story by reading the sentence under the first photo. Then, students take turns saying one event at a time until the story has reached the point where the sentence under the second photo makes sense. Then, students go on to the other sets of photos/sentences in the subsequent tabs.
