Activity Overview

The setting of a story is the location and time, or the where and when. Settings often play a crucial role almost as is the case in the book Return to Sender where the Cruz family moved from Mexico to North Carolina to Vermont. In this activity, students can map the different settings in the book in a storyboard and include illustrations and descriptions. They should be sure to explain how each setting affected the characters and story.
