A printable story web: the story title sits in the center and six spokes run out to the characters, setting, problem, main events, solution, and the lesson or theme.
What students practice
Students see a story as one connected whole rather than a list of steps. Because every element links back to the same center, the web is the shape to reach for when the question is how the parts fit together — where a story map is the better tool for retelling a plot in order.
