  5. Before we begin… • Let’s begin by making a KWL • Highlight the words in the packet that you: • Do not know • Have heard before but are not 100% on the definition

  6. Parts of a story SETTING Setting is the time and place of the action. The time can be the past, present, or the future. The place can be as small as a room or as big as a country or even a place you imagine. The setting affects the story’s problem and how it is solved. The setting can also be described as the CONTEXT, which means occasion, time, and place.

  7. Parts of a story CHARACTERS The people, animals, or creatures that take part in the story’s action The most important characters are the MAIN CHARACTERS. They usually experience a change of attitude in the story. The less important characters are MINOR CHARACTERS. The characters’ traits affect the story’s events and conflict.

  8. Parts of a story CONFLICT A problem or struggle a character in the story faces. This leads to the climax of the story. Person v. nature Person v. society Person v. self Person v. person Person v. machine

  9. From Trouble River Setting and characters Define anxiety. Where are they? How does the woman react to her grandson’s absence?

  10. From Zlateh the Goat What is the setting? What is the unexpected conflict that Zlateh will face on his journey to sell his family’s goat? Can other types of weather be a sign in a story that something good or bad is about to happen? Sunshine Full moon Lightning storm Rain shower

  11. Plot Diagram

  12. Plot Diagram Climax Rising Action Falling Action Exposition Resolution

  13. 1. Exposition (write these notes below your label on the mountain) • Introduces the main characters • Establishes the setting • Sets the conflict in motion (initial incident)

  14. 2. Rising Action(write these notes below your label on the mountain) • Shows how the conflict becomes more difficult • Build suspense (the desire to know what will happen next)

  15. 3. Climax(write these notes below your label on the mountain) • Is the most exciting part • Turning point • Point of no return • Makes the outcome of the conflict clear

  16. 4. Falling Action(write these notes below your label on the mountain) • Eases the tension • Shows how the main character resolves the conflict

  17. 5. Resolution(write these notes below your label on the mountain) • Reveals how everything turns out • Reveals a lesson learned • Acknowledge feelings • Sometimes called the denouement

  18. From The Bracelet Why is this setting necessary for this conflict to take place?

  19. From You’re Not a WINNER Unless Your Picture’s in the Paper What kind of conflict is presented in this story? What evidence of rising action is in the text?

  20. Independent Practice: Boar Out There You will now use what you have learned to read and answer these questions independently.

  21. When you are complete: • Fill out the “L” section of your KWL from the beginning of class • Bring your paper to Ms. Baca and I to check. • We will determine your grade and whether or not you mastered today’s objective. • We will hand you your homework story to read and annotate. What does annotate mean? • Circle characters, Put a line under plot events that move the story forward, squiggle figurative language, highlight words you don’t know, exclamation point next to surprising or strong statements, question marks next to ideas you don’t understand
