Retelling A Story Worksheet

Learners choose a story they have read or heard and consider its central topic, important parts, and what they learned. Three labelled sections organise the retelling across beginning, middle, and end, while picture space gives an additional way to represent a memorable event.

The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats – Finger Puppet Set

The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats – Finger Puppet Set

Learners cut along the shapes, fold designated lines backward, and glue only the shaded tabs so each puppet retains an opening for a finger. Two visual versions allow immediate use or learner customisation. A foldable pocket stores the characters and scenery in a notebook, while backdrop pieces use rear flaps to stand upright. Once assembled, the pieces support oral retelling or performance without reproducing the story text itself.
