Pace: a story-Based Approach for Dialogic Inquiry about Form

1. Do you like the text and find it appealing?

2. Does the story include engaging characters?

3. Will the learners enjoy the story you selected? Is it an age-appropriate story dealing with issues, experiences, and themes that reflect the lives of your learners?
Does the story incite imagination or reflection?

4. Does the story lend itself to “stageable actions”?

5. Can you visualize these actions? Would you or your learners be able to draw
pictures to illustrate the sequence of events or dramatize scenes from the story?
