• Students are to view the template before they read to review the elements of a story.  
• While students read the story they may take notes on each element to later put into the slide show.  
• Once students have completed their reading they are to type in text for each slide.  
• The amount of information and explanation given for each element will be dependent upon the grade level of the student. 
• Students will then use the presentation they have created to retell the story or explain how each element enhanced the story.   

This template can be used  in conjunction with a story which has been read to a class, a book a student has read or as an extension to any of the online stories listed here.
