Model
After the host introduces the slideshow, point to the photo on screen. Ask children: What are the people in the photo doing? (telling a story). Who is telling the story? (the teacher). Ask children: What kinds of stories do you like to tell? (answers will vary). Say: All stories have certain parts. All stories have a beginning and an end. Can you think of other parts that all stories have? (characters, a place, a time).
Apply
Have children play the games that follow. Have them discuss with their partner the different topics that appear during the Talk About It feature. After the first game, ask children to talk about examples of the different kinds of stories and help the children learn more about the kinds of stories they are interested in. After the second game, have them tell a story to a partner or group using a setting and characters from the game.

We can tell stories about things that have happened to us. We can tell stories about things we learn about. We can tell stories about things we imagine. Encourage children to think about stories that they’d like to tell.
