Text Analysis Workshop PLOT AND CONFLICT

CONFLICT--The fuel of a Story In a story, a conflict is a struggle between two opposing forces. (Ex: A knight must slay a dragon.) There are two types of conflicts: Internal External

External Conflict A struggle between the character and an outside force There are three different types of external conflict: Character vs. Character Character vs. Force of Nature Character vs. Society

Internal Conflict This kind of conflict takes place within a character’s own mind, as he or she deals with difficult thoughts, feelings, or decisions. Character vs. Self

Practice- Close Read What conflict does Eva face? What details suggest that Eva is conflicted by this? Eva knew it wasn’t right to copy other people’s work, but it wasn’t as bad as cheating on a test, and a lot of people did it. She knew that didn’t make it right, but still it didn’t seem like such a big sin, and besides, she wasn’t the copier. The whole thing made her feel pretty mixed up. She didn’t know for sure if she had let Kenisha copy her work because of all that stuff Gramma Evelyn said about being nice to Kenisha or because she wanted to get in with Kenisha and be one of her cool people.

PLOT Plot is the series of events in a story Traditionally, there are five stages in a plot structure.

1. Exposition Exposition introduces the setting, characters, and reveals the conflict. Exposition

2. Rising Action The author introduces the obstacles, and builds conflict. Rising Action

3. Climax The Climax is the turning point. At this point, the conflict is intense! Climax

4. Falling Action The author reveals the outcome, eases tension, and resolves conflict. Falling Action

5. Resolution The resolution reveals the final outcome and ties up loose ends. Resolution
