Class Experience

In this Storytime I am going to read 2-3 chapters of the book 'Der kleine Drache Kokosnuss und die starken Wikinger' (The small dragon Coconut and the strong Vikings) by Ingo Siegner in every meeting. We will discuss words and content in German.
This class is only for learners that are fluent (for their age) in the German language. 
I will not translate the stories into English. 
This said, if questions about the meaning of a word arise, we might translate single words to make sure that it's understood.
In the story Kokosnuss the little dragon and his friends Oskar and Matilda meet the a Viking who was thrown out of his Viking trbe because their leader found him guilty for stealing his golden horn.
The three friends help him to get back into his tribe and proof him innocent.

It's a sweet book for kids ages 5-8, maybe 9. There are illustrations in the book on every page, so the kids get an idea on what Kokosnuss looks like and what he and his friends are up to. 
There are 30 books published in the series, but every book stands on his own and is pretty much one big adventure that Kokosnuss and his friends are experiencing. This is book 15.

While I read the story in class, I show the students a Powerpoint presentation of the pictures. I stop in between when I see interesting words and ask if the students understand them. At least after each chapter we talk about something specific that we just read. I might ask if the have an idea what the characters decision might be, how the story will go on or just if they have experienced something similar before in their lives, ....
