This Flow Map Lesson follows Circle Map, Bubble Map, Double Bubble Map, and Tree Map lessons shown in my Classroom Storytelling Blog. They are for the story 'The Endless Story'.

Before you begin these lessons, retell the story again to your students. Students enjoy listening to the same story again and again. They often tell me they notice different things in the story each time. They also enjoy hearing the parts they remember again. Listening to a story a second or third time reinforces familiar vocabulary. Retelling a story strengthens listener's ability to define unfamiliar words in context increasing aural vocabulary.
