The second pack in the Ages 7 to 9 Vocabulary & Speaking collection, teaching children to turn a rambling "and then... and then" account into a story a listener can follow, picture and enjoy, with a clear beginning, middle and end, vivid settings, real characters and proper cause and consequence.

What's included

  • The Story That Went Everywhere, giving a tangled story a route
  • Beginning, middle and end, ordering muddled event cards
  • Stop saying "and then", precise sequencing connectors
  • Give me the important details, choosing what the listener needs
  • The 5W story builder, the bones of a real event
  • Set the scene, one strong opening sentence for instant context
  • Introducing people properly, names before pronouns
  • Bringing characters alive through actions and words
  • Because, so and but, showing cause and consequence
  • Describing feelings and moments so a listener can picture them
  • Building to the main moment instead of flattening it
  • Finishing well, endings that land instead of trailing off

Who it's for

Parents and carers of children aged 7 to 9 who want clearer, more engaging storytelling and recounting.
