This resource provides a comprehensive guide on how to retell a story using a structured tool called a 'Retell Map.' The guide emphasizes the importance of identifying key story elements such as characters, setting, and plot, and organizes them in sequence for clarity. It outlines steps to become skilled in retelling including reading the story attentively, filling in the Retell Map with notes on each section (Beginning, Middle, and End), and using the map to recall details when sharing the story. Visual aids are encouraged to enhance comprehension, along with a self-check rubric to ensure all elements are included in the retell. Additionally, there is a reflective section for personal engagement with the story.
