Exploring Problem and Solution in Story Elements

The video tutorial focuses on the story elements of problem and solution. It explains that every story has a problem, which is a challenge or obstacle that a character must overcome. The solution is how the character resolves the problem. An example story about Jenny and Daisy is used to illustrate these concepts, where Jenny falls and hurts her knee, and her sister Anna helps by applying a bandage. The video concludes by encouraging viewers to use their understanding of story elements to write their own stories.
