Authors write stories to amuse, persuade, inform, or entertain, and to teach morals. Key story elements include characters, plot, setting, conflict, and resolution, all unified by a theme. Understanding these elements helps grasp the story's message. The video invites viewers to explore more about story elements in a series, starting with characters, and encourages teachers to follow Ms. Dorsman's Virtual Corner for additional resources.
