Plot Diagram

No comments
This chart will work with any short story or novel. It includes the standard parts, exposition, rising action, climax, falling action and resolution, but it also has a place for students to include information about setting, mood, characters, type of conflict (internal/external) and a place for resolution and what happens to the characters at the end. I model this with my 8th grades and then have them complete the chart independently with certain short stories. It it a visual way to outline the story.
