Each year, my students need to be reminded of the elements of plot. Post this colorful anchor chart in your room to teach and remind students of the major components

Story Element Flow Chart: Genre, Plot, Author's Purpose, Text Structure
I've created this flow chart to help students understand story elements. We began with just the author and illustrator, then added as we went. I never add anything before I teach it, or it's too much to comprehend. I use this chart every time we read a story, having the little hiker guy "climb" his way thru the elements.
