Using Traditional Stories.
Fairman, Anthony
English Language Teaching Journal, v35 n2 p134-36 Jan 1981
Describes the use of oral traditional stories to teach sentence cohesion to students of English as a Foreign Language. Oral stories, when written, resemble the pupils' own work. By turning the former into a cohesive narrative, students can improve on their own stories. Temporal cohesion of the stories facilitates this practice. (PJM)
