The Old Pocket Watch: An English as a Second Language Short Story

language ( July 9, 2013)
This is a short story for teachers of English as a Second Language. It is about a teenager named Kevin that is given the chance to go back in time for one hour. While he is in the past he can help his grandfather out, and affect his grandfather's future.

The story would take many days, depending on the reading skills of the students in class. (I thought of the idea for students in countries like Korea and Japan, where stories with characters their ages, written on an easy level, can be tough to find).

After the story there are discussion questions. If you could change the past, should you?

It is for an ESL classroom. It is written on a level that American children that know English already would find to easy.
