8 Song Stories

This activity aims at talking about sequential actions. It also encourages students to improve the four main language
skills.

Materials and Preparation

Choose four different songs of different genres, e.g., rock, pop, country music. Divide the class into groups of four and
give each group a blank piece of paper.

Procedure

1 Ask students to draw a cross on the piece of paper dividing it into four equal parts. Tell them to number the parts from
1 to 4.
2 Explain that each student in the group will use one part of the paper.
3 Play the first song and ask the first students to draw something on it, either related to how the song makes them feel
or something related to the lyrics.
4 Play the next song and follow the same procedure with the others.
5 After they finish drawing, explain that they now need to make up a story following the sequence of the drawings of
their group members. Give them time to prepare their story. Then ask each group to present it to the class, with each
student telling his/her part of the story.
