These are the three literary elements writers use to show readers a story's settings rather than tell the about it:
1) Descriptive details.
Using descriptive details such as what you see, hear, and smell may also be used as context clues to help a reader determine the setting within a story or paragraph/passage.
2) Sensory language.
Sensory language is a type of descriptive writing. It is a descriptive writing style that focuses on your 5 senses : touch, taste, smell, hear, and see. This may be another way you can figure out were a setting of a story is.
3) Imagery!
