Story Wheel
The Story Wheel is a fun, interesting way to get students to become active independant learners. By employing the Story wheel as a teaching tool, students will have to be alert and as creative as possible. I envision my students working in groups to get the tast done. The Story wheel csn be used for both English Language and Literature sessions.
Upper school Literature students can use it for creating timelimes of a particular author's work or even to present information on major characters and themes explored in chronological order. The story wheel is a fantastic tool for assessing student understanding of the various genres taught in preparation for csec examinations.
Lower form students can use the story wheel to create interesting Short Stories. The listening component is key to students being able to access their own work.
