Since 2005 they have been working with children, young people, parents, educators and artists to develop children’s language skills through oral storytelling.
The section 1001 stories offers dozens of short stories on different topics that you can listen to or watch. A transcript for each story is available and sometimes a map of the story is provided, which happens to be an invaluable tool if you want to use a specific story to develop your speaking skills. On the minus side, the stories cannot be downloaded.
Self-study idea:
Listen or watch a story as often as necessary until you fully understand it. Use the transcript to deal with difficult vocabulary or unknown words.
Once you are familiar with the story, try to repeat the story in your own words using the map if it is available.
