The worksheet includes a large blank box framed in blue for drawing, with clip art of pine trees in the upper left corner and a fisherman in a boat in the lower right corner. There are blank lines for the student's name and the date.

It encourages them to think critically about the 'where' and 'when' of the story and to represent it visually, which can improve comprehension and retention.
