The ability to analyze story elements aids in reading comprehension, leads to a deeper understanding of literature, and helps students develop and write their own stories. As teachers, we want students to understand a story arc or events that happen in the beginning, middle, and end of a story. Students should understand that authors often begin a story by introducing and developing the characters and setting, introduce a conflict and action to build tension and interest, and conclude a story with a climax that resolves the conflict. The goal of this resource is to help your students practice these skills to identify and analyze different story elements.
