A plot is a sequence of events that make up a story, I can make them as long and complicated or as short and simple as I like!!!

Date/Time/Era – Past, Present Or Future – time period? Location/Scene – use your five senses: taste, touch, smell, sight & hearing! A Theme perhaps? The Setting of My Story

The Setting Continued Some examples The Hobbit: A hole Underground Harry Potter: Platform 9 and 3/4 Danny the Champion of the World: A caravan in a filling station.

First Person: I, We or My. Third Person: He, She, They or One. Who is the Narrator/Story Teller

Description – A description using adjectives How Shall I start my story Dialogue – A Conversation Action – Straight into the Action

Why ? Who ? Where ? What ? When ? The Five W’s

By walking off into the sunset ? By living happily ever after ? By waking up from a dream or nightmare ? By disappearing into the distance forever ? How Shall I end my Story There could be a sequel or it could be a Trilogy !
