Elements of a Story

Elements of a Story


This well-done site will help even older elementary school students explore the elements of a story using the well-known Cinderella tale as source material. Students will learn about setting, character, sequence, exposition, conflict, climax, and resolution. The site would also be ideal for ESL/ELL students as a pleasant female voice "reads" the text appearing on the screen, which can help with English pronunciation, etc. The site also has a 14-question assessment.
