Story Clock
This strategy helps students with plot development by using a graphic organizer.
- The students read an assigned story.
- Using a graphic representation similar to a clock, the students draw 12 pictures depicting events from the story.
- The students start at the 1 o'clock position and draw a picture of the starting event.
- The students continue around the circle with pictures relaying the story events in successive order.
- The final event is placed at the 12 o'clock position.
- The students add a sentence near each picture to further explain the events.
