School age examples 5. Narrative If (child’s name) is telling you about something that happened or telling a story, for example, the plot of a book, film or TV programme, how does (he/she) go about it? Examples: Tries to do it using gestures and single words. Tries to show what happened by acting it out. Does it by responding to questions. Gives a coherent version of the story.
