Learn the idea
A simple story connects a character, a problem, actions and an ending. Time words help the listener follow the events. Keep the same tense unless you have a reason to change it.
Worked example
“First, Mina lost a pencil. Next, she looked under her desk. Finally, she found it beside her bag.” The final event resolves the problem.
- Explain the problem early.
- Connect actions in a sensible order.
- End by showing what changed.
