Description

These story structure task cards (story elements) are focused on the elements of fiction: characters, setting, and plot. Students will identify the parts of a story in a multiple-choice format. They are perfect when you want to have interventions for students learning to summarize, cite text evidence, or simply when learning story structure.

The questions and texts increase in complexity and difficulty from set 1 to set 3. This story elements task card bundle includes:

  • Story Structure Task Cards 1 (Grades 2-3)
  • Story Structure Task Cards 2 (Grades 2-4)
  • Story Structure Task Cards 3 (Grades 2-4)
  • 36 Task Cards
  • Identifying Elements of Fiction
  • Basic Inferences
  • Character, Setting, Plot, Conflict, Introduction, Author's Purpose

Skills and Standards Alignment

  • Describe how characters in a story respond to major events and challenges.
  • Describe characters in a story (e.g., their traits, motivations, or feelings) and explain how their actions contribute to the sequence of events
  • Describe the overall structure of a story, including describing how the beginning introduces the story and the ending concludes the action.
