Description
Need an engaging and rigorous resource for teaching plot structure? This teaching slide resource (with optional printable student guide) will help lead you through teaching and implementing guided practice for the skill of plot structure for 4th and 5th graders.

- Define the five basic parts of plot structure and their role in a story.
- Apply understanding of plot structure to identify the plot elements of a story.
About the Teaching Slides Presentations
The presentation is a great way to teach or review the reading skill. It works well if you project it on your interactive whiteboard as a whole group lesson, but you could also assign it independently through your digital learning platform as a reference for your students.
The teaching presentation includes a variety of types of slides…
- Vocabulary
- Questions
- Answers
- Short stories
- Longer stories with comprehension questions
- Brainstorming
- Interactive activities
Interactive Elements:
The presentation encourages participation by asking students to come up with examples and think about how character traits apply to themselves and fictional characters. Add in more interactive elements as needed to keep your students engaged and interacting with the content.
The presentations are NOT editable. Due to copyright restrictions and the terms of use of design components used, the presentations are not editable. You are able to delete or reorder slides as needed. Thank you for understanding.
Note: Some of the longer passages have discussion questions included on the slides. They are NOT included in the student printables. These are not always related to the skill, but optional discussion questions you may wish to use for conversations or “turn and talk” opportunities.
Accessing the Presentations in Microsoft PowerPoint:
If you want to access the slideshow in Microsoft PowerPoint instead of Google Slides, simply make a copy to your drive, then follow these steps:
- Open the Google Slides file.
- Click: File > Download > Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx)
- The file will download to your computer and you will be able to open it in PowerPoint.
About the Guided Notes
The guided notes match the presentation and allow students to fill in the blanks while you go through the slides. After the presentation, the students have a handy reference for the skill!
Extension Activities
There are optional extension activities included in both digital and printable format. You may choose to have your students complete them or not. Be sure to decide before presenting the slideshow and/or assigning the presentation digitally.
