How to create interesting stories with time-limited classes????

Lately, I've realized that I continue to make the same mistake with my third year students - I teach too high for most of them.  Since my students only meet for an hour at a time for only three days a week, they don't have the same level of background/acquisition as other third year students.  This makes it difficult because they haven't acquired as much, but the curriculum we follow seems to disregard the lack of time/acquisition that my students have had. 
I'm struggling with creating interesting, grammar-focused, vocabulary limited stories for them.  But then again, maybe I'm not letting them play the game - I need to personalize more.
