These Setting Graphic Organizers are an assortment of graphic organizers that can be used to help students explore and analyze SETTING.  Students will learn how and why a work’s time and place affects the events and/or the characters of the work. Often the reader/writer will want to consider setting as part of another form of literary analysis (extending the analysis of a character, for example). These graphic organizers vary in difficulty, which provides options for differentiation. The graphic organizers can be mixed and matched for an increase of difficulty. These graphic organizers can help students organize their thoughts when thinking about an author's message.

Graphic Organizers focus on the following:

⭐ Setting Analysis (Making Inferences about Setting)

⭐ Setting Impact on Characters

⭐ Setting Details and Whether Characters "Fit-In" Well

⭐ Compare and Contrast Your Neighborhood with Story Setting

⭐ Significance of Important Setting Details

⭐ Author's Use of Setting Language

⭐ Add Your Own Setting Details

⭐ Conflict and Setting

⭐ Mood Created By Setting

✅ Printable version

You can simply print out these graphic organizers and distribute. (This version is also included in Google Slides - Text boxes already created!)

✅ PowerPoint version

Also included is a “PowerPoint version” of the Setting Graphic Organizers with visually appealing fun clipart and fonts – UNEDITABLE – due to copyright purposes. They contain the same exact content in the printable/worksheets. PowerPoint version is also included in GOOGLE SLIDES - Text boxes already created!

✅ You will receive the actual Setting PowerPoint Graphic Organizer (uneditable), which includes “already created” text boxes. You can share the PowerPoint with your students to type in their responses, use it as display (Smartboard, “screen sharing,” upload into Google Classroom, type in it during mini lessons, etc.). Additionally, the same PowerPoint has also been uploaded into Google Slides with text boxes already created!

Lesson plans are not included. These graphic organizers can be used in addition to your own lesson plans and in such a way that best meets the needs of your students.
