5 Part Story Mountain

Travelling Tales is a fun and simple way for students to create and share short stories using Canva. They draw pictures, add text, and narrate their stories with their own voices.

​

Each Travelling Tale is divided into five parts:

    1.    Beginning – Where the Tale starts and the characters are introduced.
   2.    Build-up – The part where the excitement or tension begins to grow.
   3.    Problem – The challenge or conflict that the characters face.
   4.    Resolution – How the problem is solved.
   5.    Ending – Wrapping up the Tale and showing how everything turns out.

​

​Each part is simple and brief, keeping the story moving and engaging!
