Description

The article's storytelling treatment was organized as a lesson plan "had three sections: preteaching, while-teaching, and postteaching stages". In the pre-storytelling stage learners received comprehensible input through talk, games, reading and listening and learned key vocabulary via pictures and gestures. In the while-storytelling stage the teacher told the story with PowerPoint visual support and interaction, and in the post-storytelling stage learners played vocabulary games and role-played the story by memorizing dialogues.
