You can use hand puppets, voice changes, or even draw comic panels. Make them ask questions, tell jokes, or give clues. Kids start to look forward to what their teacher says next.
Head outside and explore:

Start a story—and pause halfway. Ask the child to invent the ending.
This strengthens:
You can even record their endings and play them back as a “podcast” segment.
