\u201cThe Monkey\u2019s Paw\u201d Reading Lesson <\/em>by Breanna Durham (South Korea ETA)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s Halloween, and what better way to celebrate this holiday in your classroom than by reading a spooky story? Our newest Lesson of the Week, \u201c\u2019The Monkey\u2019s Paw\u2019 Reading Lesson\u201d by South Korea ETA Breanna Durham focusing on the classic story \u201cThe Monkey\u2019s Paw\u201d by author W.W. Jacobs presents an excellent example of how to approach reading short stories in your ESL classroom.<\/p>\n

Designed for her middle school reading club class, Breanna\u2019s lesson breaks the story up into chunks with translated words (in Korean, but easy to swap out for your students\u2019 language) and questions to check for understanding. Following reading the story, students complete a \u201cThree Wishes\u201d activity and are asked to reflect upon the possible consequences for their wishes, taking into consideration what happened in the story.
