Introduction

Activity: Two truths, one lie (10 min)

Explain narrative structure and Pyramid Stort Structure.

Step 1:

Divide your learners into pairs.

Instruction: Tell your partner three things about yourself – two of which are true, and one which is a lie. You might choose to tell them three everyday facts, or three more unusual things. But remember, only one of them should be a lie. For example, you might tell your partner about your hobbies, school life, where you live, your family, or where you have travelled on holiday. Make sure that each of you listens carefully to what your partner says.

Step 2:

Instruction: Now introduce your partner to the rest of the group, and see if the class can guess the lie.

Observe if your learners listened well enough to remember the three things that their partner told them.
