1 thought on “Article”
It is so interesting as I re-read this article that I had written. In 2012 I used the words “as I revealed the storyline” to my middle school students. My version of Blaine’s TPRS was much simplified as described above. The word “revealed” is a word that I am again using now as I employ Beniko Mason Nanki’s story listening approach to teach Spanish with my elementary students. In fact, I just left a wonderful conversation via Zoom with Beniko 5 minutes ago. She and I talked at length about how I will research the effectiveness of pure story listening with my elementary students. I will also be blogging as I work through this exciting endeavor. Here’s the link to the blog:

I look forward to hearing from anyone interested in story listening as I do this research. My overall plan is to reveal children’s books (stories) much simplified from our public library. I may also use some of the simple stories written by Jalen Waltman from her novice learner curriculum. I would never have started this blog nor conceived of once again using a pure story listening approach had I not met the wonderful teachers on the CI Liftoff Facebook page. Thanks, Ben, Tina, Beniko, Claire, Jillane, and all of you who contribute to CI Liftoff.
