Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Identify the characters in a story heard aloud
Describe where the story takes place

Teaching tips
Pause after the read-aloud to name the three response categories before learners begin drawing.
Ask learners to pair each picture with a sentence that names the same character, setting, or event.
Use the big-event section to discuss why one event matters to the story rather than listing every action.
Skills covered
Listening comprehension — learners recall story information presented through a teacher read-aloud.
Story-element analysis — characters, setting, and a major event are identified separately.
Written and visual response — each story element is represented through both drawing and sentence writing.
