Good use of intonation, pausing at the right time, emphasising the new information, putting fear into your voice when calling for "Dad" and receiving or giving a hug (if appropriate) at the end of the story. These simple stories read aloud are excellent for students to practise their own st...

3 pages of Phonic Comics with ph study: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#35)
Here is another one focusing on /ph/ as in phone. Notice the phone at the top right. I use "phone" as a key word to help my students focus on this spelling pattern and sound. The comic dialogue on page 2 has on the same target as the worksheet. I live in Kagoshima prefcture and we do get hit by typhoons. They can be very scary at times.
