Age Range: 8-11

This is an interactive website to help students learn about the literary elements that make up a story. It is purposely designed for home or classroom use.

Here you can watch and listen to an animated version of the fairytale, "Cinderella." Then, through watching a series of animated presentations, you'll learn about the various literary elements of a story including:

 •Setting
•Characters
•Plot
•Exposition
•Conflict
•Climax
•Resolution


The presentations are followed by a series of activities to enhance students' understanding. Students will be asked to put plot developments into the correct order, select appropriate settings and characters, and sort events and exposition."



Once you've completed the interactive lessons, click on "Test Your Skills" on the menu bar to take a quiz.

Parents will appreciate the "Tips for Adults" on the horizontal menu at the bottom of the story screen where you'll find "Ideas and Activities" for extending the learning at home.
