ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Language Development, Pre-Reading, Writing, Not Grade Specific, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
This is our THEME section of our Graphic Organizers Series: The FIVE Elements of a Story. In this set, you can enjoy 10 custom graphic organizers for Theme. These graphic organizers can be used in any classroom, for any grade, and with any student. Use these graphic organizers to help students gain an understanding of Theme in a story. Each graphic organizer comes with instructions on how to use them. Theme Graphic Organizers: Inference Clues – Infer the theme and its meaning from the story by using clues the author gives you. Write down clues to the theme in the circles. Then, find the theme based on these clues and write it in the Inference box. Discuss how you were able to come to that conclusion based on the clues from the story. Theme Prediction – Predict what you think the theme of the story will be based only on the cover art, title, and back cover description. Then, support your prediction. Follow this by writing down evidence from the story as you read along. Finally, write down the actual theme and compare this to your prediction. Theme Chart – First identify the main characters, main conflict, and theme of the story. Then, breakdown the theme of the story by first writing down the beginning of the theme. Follow this by writing the development of the theme, then the climax of the theme. Finish off with the resolution of the theme. Theme Comparison – First, write down a list of themes from the story in the first box. Then, compare these themes by writing their differences in the outside circles, and their similarities in the area where the circles overlap. Finally, write down your conclusions based on this information. Theme Tree – Complete the Theme Tree by first writing the theme on the trunk of the tree. Then, include evidence from the story to support the theme on the branches of the tree. Evidence can be in the form of quotes, paraphrasing, descriptions, and drawings. Theme Contrast – This graphic organizer helps with identifying the Theme and not getting it confused with the Plot or Main Idea of the story. Contrast the theme with the plot or main idea by comparing them and listing ONLY their differences in the two columns. Theme Connection – Connect the Theme of the story with Real Life. First, identify the theme of the story and write it in the center triangle. Then, write down examples of the theme from the story in the circles. Finally, write down examples of the theme as they appear in real life in the rectangles. Changes in Theme – Identify how the Theme changes throughout the story. In the first column, write down the theme in the beginning of the story. In the second column, write down the theme at the end of the story. Compare the two to show how the theme changes. Do this for every theme in the story. Theme Identifier – Get help identifying the Theme of a story by answering the questions. Start off by describing what happens in the story. Then, identify the most important event in the story. Explore the characters by identifying how they change and what they learn. Finally, determine what the author is trying to tell you. Theme Analysis – Identify the Theme, analyze its development, and summarize key supporting details. First, write down what you think the author wants you to understand in the triangle. Then, include supporting evidence in the circles. Finally, tell how the author communicates the theme in the rectangles.

ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Language Development, Pre-Reading, Writing, Not Grade Specific, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
This is our SETTING section of our Graphic Organizers Series: The FIVE Elements of a Story. In this set, you can enjoy 10 custom graphic organizers for Setting. These graphic organizers can be used in any classroom, for any grade, and with any student. Use these graphic organizers to help students gain an understanding of Setting in a story. Each graphic organizer comes with instructions on how to use them. Setting Graphic Organizers: Setting Elements - Place + Time + Environment = Setting in this Graphic Organizer. Describe the Place that the story takes place in the house graphic. Then, describe the Time in the clock graphic. Finally, describe the Environment in the landscape graphic. Setting Stage - Draw the setting that the story takes place in on the stage in this graphic organizer. Be sure to illustrate the time and place that the story takes place in. Also include the environment of the story, and try to show the tone or mood that the setting creates for the story. Changes in Setting - Identify how the Setting changes throughout the story. In the first column, write down when and where the story takes place at the beginning. In the second column, write down when and where the story takes place at the end. Compare the two to show how the setting changed. Setting Comparison - Compare your Setting with the Setting of the story. In the first column, describe your own Place, Time, Environment, and Mood. Then, do the same for the story’s setting in the second column. Finally, compare each element of the setting. What is the same? What is different? Tone and Mood - Where + When = Tone/Mood in this Graphic Organizer. Describe Where the story takes place in the house graphic. Then, describe When the story takes place in the clock graphic. Finally, describe how both of these elements affect the Tone and Mood of the story. Setting Map - Draw a map to show where the story takes place. Include all the important places from the story as the setting changes. As an extra activity, include routes to each place as it happens in the story. Additionally, include the time for each place on your map. Be creative with your drawing. Past, Present, Future - Describe the Setting as it changes throughout the story. In the Past section, write the setting that took place before the story (flashback). In the Present section, write the current setting of the story. In the Future section, write the setting that will take place after the story (flashback). Elements of Setting - Place + Time + Environment + Mood = Setting in this Graphic Organizer. Describe the Place that the story takes place in the top left box. Then, describe the Time in the top right box. Then, describe the Environment in the bottom left box. Finally, describe the Mood in the bottom right box. Character and Setting Comparison - Compare the Characters in the story with the Setting. Write traits that the character and setting share where the circles overlap. Write traits that the character and setting don’t share in the outside circles. Do this for each character and setting in the story. Setting Analysis - Describe each element of the Setting in detail. Describe the setting, how it relates to the characters, and how the characters are in conflict with the setting. Then, identify the tone and mood of the story, how the setting affects it, and how the story would change if the setting was different.
