What are guidelines for writing the introduction for a storytelling essay for grade 4 students in Vietnam?

An introduction for a story retelling essay plays a crucial role in capturing the reader's attention. Students can refer to the methods of writing an introduction for a story retelling essay below:

1. Brief Introduction of the Story: Provide an overview of the story you will tell, including the setting, main characters, and key situations.

2. Create Curiosity: Pose a question or an intriguing situation to pique the reader's curiosity, prompting them to continue reading to uncover the story.

3. Use a Quotation or Highlighted Phrase: Start with a character’s line or a standout quote from the story to make a strong impression.

4. Describe the Setting and Time: Establish a specific and clear context regarding the story’s time and place for the reader to easily visualize.

There are two ways to write introductions for a story-retelling essay: direct introduction and indirect introduction:

- Direct introduction: go straight into introducing the story you will tell or mention the main character and central event right from the start.

Example:

Hôm qua, khi em đi học, em đã gặp một bà lão bán vé số rất tội nghiệp. Câu chuyện này khiến em không thể quên....

Trong buổi chiều hôm ấy, em đã chứng kiến một câu chuyện cảm động về tình người và lòng nhân ái....

- Indirect introduction: lead into the story by setting the scene, describing the space, or initial emotions, then create intrigue before directly introducing the story.

Example:

Sáng sớm hôm qua, khi những tia nắng đầu tiên vừa chiếu sáng con đường đi học quen thuộc, em bất chợt nhìn thấy một hình ảnh khiến lòng mình xót xa: một bà lão ngồi bên lề đường, đôi mắt buồn rầu bán từng tờ vé số.

Trong buổi chiều yên ả, khi gió nhẹ thổi qua hàng cây, em bất chợt nghe thấy tiếng cười nói vui vẻ của những đứa trẻ bên đường. Trong khung cảnh đó, em đã chứng kiến một câu chuyện vô cùng cảm động.

Một buổi sáng mùa đông lạnh giá, khi em bước chân ra khỏi nhà, sương sớm trắng xóa phủ đầy mặt đất. Trong cái lạnh ấy, em đã gặp một câu chuyện khiến lòng mình ấm áp.
