One way to teach story elements is by reading a simple picture book aloud and then using a graphic organizer to review the story elements.
A blank SWBS can then be used to plan an original story created in a variety of platforms such as Book Creator or Little Bird Tales.
Eric Curts suggests using story cubes to help start a story, and provides templates to Create Your Own Story Cubes with Google Drawings.
He provides templates for pictures, words, and emojis.
A special education class at MLK School #9 created story cubes with pictures using their Chromebooks and the Google drawings templates provided at the link above. The students then broke into 2 groups (the guys and girls) and wrote a story using the Somebody-Wanted-But-So template along with the story cubes. The teacher and I acted as scribes.
