Story Elements

This week, we have been working on identifying the key elements to a fiction story.


The Elements to a Story that we have focused on this week include:
  • Characters - the Who of a story
  • Setting - the Where and When of a story
  • Plot - the why and the how of a story
We also learned that most stories have a problem and a solution involved in the plot. 

In your post, please tell me:
  1. what story you are reading
  2. and describe at least 2 elements of your story
Remember to use complete sentences in your post.  Happy Posting 304!
