This lesson plan is for a 6th grade class on identifying the elements of a story over three class periods. On the first day, students will read "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" and answer pre-test questions to assess their current understanding. They will then discuss the story and questions as a class. The second day will include a PowerPoint on the elements and assigning a homework story. Elements taught will be setting, characters, and plot. The third day will have a quiz to assess learning.
