Story Grammar Marker

A Story Grammar Marker assists students with reading and listening comprehension as well as when writing narratives. It has symbols which correspond to all of the parts of a story: character, setting, -initiating event, plan, internal response, attempt , obstacle, direct consequence, and resolution.  
Sometimes it is beneficial for students to self-generate the symbols they want to use to represent the different story components.The has series of four pictures (see below) describe each of the parts of the story grammar marker in more detail and can be used with your child if you choose to make a story grammar marker. The fifth picture shows an example of a marker made with a child.
