Flannel boards (flannelgraph) are most often associated with storytelling in the preschool classroom, but they are also useful when telling a story to older students. Yes, they seem old-fashioned to us, but to a child raised with an iPad always at hand, the static pictures and orderly placement of pieces can be quite engaging on occasion. Consider using felt figures as you retell a Bible story that is too long to read directly from the Bible during class.
