We know the story quite well now. Could we tell it to someone else? A good way to remind us of the story (the plot) is to draw a story map. Model drawing a map (see resources for example) emphasising language which charts the progression (At the beginning…In the end…etc) and the different settings (kitchen, bathroom). Ask children to help you remember what happens as you draw.Activity: Retell a story and represent as a story mapObjectives: Spoken language Give well-structured descriptions; Speak audibly and fluentlyComprehension Become very familiar with key stories, fairy stories and traditional tales, retelling them and considering their particular characteristicsYou will need: Five Minutes’ Peace by Jill Murphy; story map example (see resources); paper for drawing the story maps on (A3 is a good size)Children work in pairs and small groupsActivityMost: Display your story map. Children use the map to retell the story with a partner. Tell children that you are about to hide your map so that they can try drawing their own! Children work in small groups to draw story map.
