You can create bi-lingual story books also, so that strength in one language can be used to acquire a second language. (See simple picture stories created by students)

Tip - You can put your ideas in a concept map first, before you write out your story. You should always prepare a concept map before every article or story you write. The concept map will help you write out all the ideas you want to cover, and help you place them in relationship to one another. Since you can create or move the nodes easily in a digital concept map, this will help you think in an iterative manner to revise and refine your ideas well before you actually write the story or article.
