Plot is the literary element that describes how fictional stories are usually organized. What is plot?

Types of Linear Plots Plots can be told in Chronological order Flashback In media res (in the middle of things) when the story starts in the middle of the action without exposition

Freytag’s Plot Diagram

Components of Plot Exposition: introduced to characters and setting (warm- up) Rising Action: events focus on the conflict or problem.

Conflict Conflict is the dramatic struggle between two forces in a story. Without conflict, there is no plot.

Types of Conflict Character vs Nature Character vs Society Character vs Self Internal Conflict Character vs. Character External Conflict

Components of Plot Exposition: the part of the story where you are introduced to characters and setting (warm-up) Rising Action: events focus on the conflict or problem. Climax: the turning point, when the focus switches from the problem to the solution. Falling Action: focuses on solving the problem Resolution: the conclusion where the problem is solved or determined unsolvable

The first little pig built his house out of straw because it was the easiest thing to do. The second little pig built his house out of sticks. This was a little bit stronger than a straw house. The third little pig built his house out of bricks. Once upon a time there were three little pigs, and the time came for them to leave home and seek their fortunes. Before they left, their mother told them, "Whatever you do, do it the best that you can because that's the way to get along in the world.” The Three Little Pigs

Exposition Rising Action: Opening of a story / background Events are focused around the conflict. Climax:Here’s a solution to my problem! Carrying out the solution. Falling Action: Resolution All done! Where are we on the PLOT Diagram?

One night, the big bad wolf, who dearly loved to eat fat, little piggies, came along and saw the first little pig in his house of straw. He said, "Let me in! Let me in, little pig, or I'll huff and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in!" "Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin," said the little pig. But, of course, the wolf did blow the house in and ate the first little pig. The wolf then came to the house of sticks. "Let me in! Let me in, little pig, or I'll huff and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in!" "Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin," said the little pig. But the wolf blew that house in, too, and ate the second little pig.

The wolf then came to the house of bricks. "Let me in! Let me in," cried the wolf, “or I'll huff, and I'll puff till I blow your house in!" "Not by the hair of my chinny, chin chin," said the pig. Well, the wolf huffed and puffed, but he could not blow down that brick house. But the wolf was a sly old wolf, and he climbed up on the roof to look for a way into the brick house. The little pig saw the wolf climb up on the roof and came up with an idea.

The little pig lit a roaring fire in the fireplace and placed on it a large kettle of water. When the wolf finally found the hole in the chimney, he crawled down and KERSPLASH, right into that kettle of water, and that was the end of his troubles with the big bad wolf.

The next day the little pig invited his mother over. She said, "You see? It is just as I told you. The way to get along in the world is to do things as well as you can." Fortunately for that little pig, he learned that lesson. And he just lived happily ever after!
