StorySomething

StorySomething is a really nice site for younger learners. Browse through the stories and then personalise them by entering a name. The chosen name then becomes the star of the story.

Integration:

  • Allow readers to choose their own story to star in
  • Use the stories to engage reluctant readers
  • Use them on birthdays and make the birthday boy/girl the star of the story to read to the rest of the class
  • Encourage parents to access the site and use the stories for bedtime reads
  • Use the beautiful illustrations for predictions before reading the stories
  • Sign up for weekly delivery at a certain time to build expectation and excitement about what story will appear next
Feel free to add any other ideas in the comments box below.
