Give each student a verb in the past tense (sat, stood, gave). Then start a simple chain of events with the sentence: Yesterday, I went to town and I bought a loaf of bread... The first student continues, repeating your sentence but adding a further clause including his or her verb: Yesterday I went to town, I bought a loaf of bread and I sat on a part bench... The second continues likewise: Yesterday, I went to town, I bought a loaf of bread, I sat on a park bench, and I stood at the bus stop. And so on, until all the students have contributed, or until the chain becomes impossible to remember
