Story Elements and Story Retell Graphic Organizers

Description
This resource includes a variety of graphic organizers to support story and reading comprehension by helping students organize information. The organizers in this resource are primarily suited to fiction texts.
The following organizers are included:
- Prediction (completed before reading - based on a book walk focusing on the pictures in the book, if applicable) and main idea (completed after reading)
- Story elements: characters, setting, problem, solution
- Story retell, option 1: beginning, middle, end
- Story retell, option 2: first, next, last
- Story retell, option 3: first, net, then, last
- SWBST (somebody, wanted, but, so, then) summary
- Main idea and details, option 1: main idea and 3 details
- Main idea and details, option 2: main idea and 4 details
- Author’s purpose (persuade, inform, entertain)
There are 3 pages for each organizer:
- an example completed organizer
- an organizer with lines
- an organizer without lines
This product is 35 pages in total. Watch the video preview for a full look!
To effectively support student learning, it’s important to model how to use each organizer. For this reason, I have provided a teaching/example page for each organizer. These pages use the story “The Three Little Pigs” as the example story. Students should be encouraged to refer to the example pages as needed to support them with completing their own organizers.
Each organizer is available with and without lines to give you and your students an option for what you prefer! Organizers without lines may be completed using illustrations, written responses, or a combination of both.
