Story elements are the foundation of our comprehension work with students. Once they can retell the components of a story, they’ll be able to answer higher level questions. Story elements include; characters, setting, problem & solution, main events. And the best way to teach this is through read alouds! Here are a few of my favorite picture books for story elements.
