Mapping Story Action

Worksheet Description

This ‘Literature Circles worksheet’ empowers you to become an Action Tracker, responsible for dissecting and tracing the progression of the story’s action within the assigned passage. By monitoring the key events and settings, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the narrative’s development.

Here’s how to make the most of this worksheet:

1. Start by specifying the ‘Title of Book’ and the ‘Assigned Passage’ (page numbers) that you’re analyzing.
2. Use the rows provided to ‘Capture the Main Events’ of the story. Briefly describe each significant action that unfolds in the passage.
3. Observe how the story’s setting evolves in tandem with the action. Note any changes in time, place, or circumstances.

This worksheet encourages close examination of storytelling techniques, aiding in comprehension and group discussions within literature circles.
