  1. Plot Plot is the literary element that describes the structure of a story. It shows arrangement of events and actions within a story.

  2. Plot Components Climax: is the point of greatest emotional intensity, interest, or suspense in the plot of a narrative. The climax typically comes at the turning point in a story or drama. Rising Action:is the part of the plot that begins to occur as soon as the conflict is introduced. The rising action adds complications to the conflict and increases reader interest. Falling Action:is the action that typically follows the climax and reveals its results. Exposition:is the introduction. It is the part of the work that introduces the characters, setting, and basic situation. Resolution: is the part of the plot that concludes the falling action by revealing or suggesting the outcome of the conflict.
