Easy game idea using wordless books.

This is a great game when you don't have much time to prepare a longer activity, and builds narrative skills and improves vocabulary.

1. Grab a few wordless picture books and assign one to each student.
2. Spend a few minutes quietly looking through the book.
3. Have each student present the book, telling the story.

Be careful to choose books with somewhat adult graphics - avoid anything that's too simple and cute-sy. Anything by Mistumasa Anno will work well.

To find them in your library catalog, do a subject search for "stories without words".
