Developing skills in speaking and writing grammatically correct sentences, especially for younger English learners, could be a challenging effort, especially when the students have not yet been adequately trained in arranging their ideas properly and making use of their vocabulary repertoire. In the circumstances, the students’ learning outcomes would not show satisfactory achievements, thus they would not obtain the expected passing scores. Pre-test in making conditional sentences conducted for the six graders showed that the students achieved less satisfactory marks.However, sentence building and story writing could be taught quite easily and even interestingly by using certain techniques or stratagem, among others is by making use of chain story mobile and chatterbox game. The students are assigned to make sentences on some cards and arrange them sequentially to make short stories.This learning and teaching practice has been found to help the students both improve their sentence building skill and create a playful learning atmosphere as indicated in the achievements they make by the end of the sessions.This workshop is therefore expected to give fellow teachers and English instructors a wider perspective and insight of finding more various and interesting ways in teaching English to students of other language so that an enjoyable learning atmosphere as well as satisfactory learning outcomes could be attained.
