Good Stories is a collection of 19 short stories for beginners , designed to be read-aloud stories for level 1 & 2 students. All stories include a Word Wall for oral retells, illustrations for teacher-led Picture Talks prior to reading, margin notes of less frequent vocabulary, a complete glossary of every word in the book, and most stories contain comprehension questions for class discussion. If you teach in a classroom, we recommend that you pull out a new read-aloud story once every 2-3 weeks. Discuss the pictures in German, ask questions about the pictures and text as you read, ask questions about your students' lives as you read and connect the text to real life. Enjoy the reading experience. The stories progressively become more complex over the course of the year. Between stories, fill your class with student interviews, picture talks, movie talks, One Word Images, book talks, card talks, and cultural presentations. Learn more about these teaching techniques on our website, MyGenerationOfPolyglots . By the end of the year your students will have developed the literacy skills to read these stories on their own. If you are learning German on your own, these stories are designed to develop your vocabulary while focusing on the high-frequency words you'll need most.
