Teachers can tailor the anticipatory reading activity to three difficulty levels to meet students’ needs.
- Beginners: students might use pictures, visual aids or drawings, if needed, to guide them in developing their stories. They are to be encouraged to use their imagination freely.
- Advanced learners: the task might be made a bit more difficult by using story cubes. Pairs or small groups need to continue the story by incorporating one or more words chosen randomly by using story cubes.
- Experts: pairs or small groups of students might swap stories after each round and continue another groups’ story. The use of the story cubes might be as well maintained as part of the task.
