Story Maps

This term the Grade 2 Neighbourhood is learning that good readers and good writers understand and use story structure such as problem and resolution in narratives. In our first workshop, groups read a big book and then created a story map to show the problems and resolutions that took place throughout the story. Here is the story map of Silly Willy. In Silly Willy the main character faced complication after complication, but the story ended with a happy resolution.
