Story Map Graphic Organizer — Grade 2
Second graders use the Story Map graphic organizer to capture the key story elements—characters, setting, problem, and solution—from any narrative text they have read or are writing. Teachers can assign it after a read-aloud or independent reading to check comprehension, or use it as a pre-writing plan for students crafting their own stories. The visual framework teaches students to think structurally about narrative, a habit that strengthens both reading analysis and creative writing.
Learning objectives
- Identify and record the key story elements: characters, setting, problem, and solution
- Use a graphic organizer to organize narrative information before or after reading
- Apply the story map structure as a pre-writing tool for composing original narratives
