Description

Story Elements--Grades 3-4 is designed to introduce young readers and writers to the tools that authors use as they create stories. The activities explore the concepts of character, setting, problem (conflict), and plot. The book is divided into sections for each concept, with mixed-skills pages at the end. In each section, activities progress from an introductory page to more challenging exercises. Pages from this book can be used individually to strengthen the recognition of a specific element, or to introduce it as a topic. Teachers might want to use certain pages on more difficult concepts-such as identifying a story's climax-to help review the material after it has been worked on in class.
