Bukowiecki, Elaine M.; McMackin, Mary C. – Reading Improvement, 1999
Describes a study of the effect of direct story grammar instruction for first graders. Finds that (1) young children benefit from simple story structures that focus on beginning, middle and end; and (2) this structure may provide young children with a foundation for developing an understanding of the elements of story grammar.
