Building stories for effective intermediate language learning

<p>I was looking to produce language stories, which combined the most relevant parts of <strong>TPRS</strong> and <strong>mini stories</strong>.</p> <p>My aim was to stay true to <strong>first step in the TPRS method</strong> by identifying phrases and vocabulary as learning outcomes before the reading starts.</p> <p><strong>Next, I understood the importance of keeping the story and plot relevant to the reader</strong> and, in the way that Mini Stories demands, appropriate for their level.</p> <p>And finally, <strong>adhering to the recipe for any good story</strong> – keep things interesting, fresh and engaging.</p>
