Support students with clear, visual thinking using our storyboard templates for writing, comprehension, and creative projects. These printable worksheets help learners organise ideas step by step, making it easier to plan stories, sort events, and prepare written or visual work before they begin.

Designed for flexibility, storyboard templates can be used across year levels and subject areas, making them a practical everyday resource for teachers and educators.

What Are Storyboard Templates Used For?

Storyboard templates provide a visual planning framework where students break larger tasks into smaller sections. Each panel represents one key moment, idea, or event, helping learners see the order and flow of their thinking.

They’re commonly used to:

• Sequence events in stories or recounts
• Plan written responses before drafting
• Visualise ideas using pictures and short notes
• Prepare for longer writing or media tasks

This structured approach supports clarity, organisation, and confidence.

Differentiated Storyboards – Multiple Layouts to Suit Different Learning Needs

The storyboard templates are available in a range of panel formats, allowing you to select the layout that best fits your activity. Options include simple formats with fewer panels as well as designs with more sections for detailed planning.

Each template includes:

• Clear boxed panels for ideas or illustrations
• Writing lines to support note‑taking or captions
• Minimal distractions for easy classroom use

Students can focus on content rather than layout decisions.
