Explore the Key Elements of a Story

Once upon a time, in a classroom not dissimilar from your own, there was a teacher exploring story elements with their students!

Sound familiar? Of course, it does! And the Teach Starter team is here to save you time with your lesson preparation when it comes to exploring story elements with your students.

This set of three differentiated graphic organizers has been designed to support you in teaching story elements to your little learners using a combination of words and pictures. Each graphic organizer is slightly different to help you cater to the individual needs of the students in your class. And the beauty is, these templates can be used with any picture book, guided reader or comprehension text!

The graphic organizers included in the resource download are:

  1. Draw or list the characters and setting.
  2. Draw or write the problem and solution.
  3. Draw and write the beginning, middle and end of the story.

Choose the graphic organizer that best meets the needs of your lesson and your class, or provide different graphic organizers to different groups of learners based on their ability.

Multiple Uses for These Story Elements Graphic Organizers 

This versatile resource can be used in various ways in your early years classroom. Why not try some of the following activities:

  • Whole-class activity (via smartboard)
  • Reading group task
  • Individual practice
