STRATEGY:
Analyze Story Structure
• Story structure is the way a writer shows
the characters, setting, and plot (events) in
a story.
• Identifying the elements (parts) in a story
and how they fit together helps you
understand what is happening.
SKILL: Problem and Solution
• The problem in a story is what the main
character wants to do, find out, or change
• The story ends when the character finds a
solution, or a way to solve the problem.
