Plot

Chain of events in a story, consisting of 6 elements: 

1. exposition
2. inciting incident
3. rising action
4. climax
5. falling action
6. resolution

Plot

1) Exposition: writer introduces the reader to 

• setting (when/where/basic situation)
• characters
• narrative

2) Inciting incident: the first major action in the story that sets the story in motion

Plot

3) Rising action: incidents that carry the plot along:

• Foreshadowing: a literary device that hints at events occurring later on in the plot
  
• Flashback: a literary device that inserts an earlier event in the timeline; that looks back at a past event
  
• Conflict: what prevents the main character from getting what (s)he wants
  
• Internal conflict: person vs self
  
• External conflict: person vs person/society/environment/technology/fate etc.

Plot

• 4) Climax - the highest point of interest in the story when the character solves his/her struggles; highest point of emotion
  
  
• 5) Falling action - The character completes the action of his/her decision
  
  
• 6) Resolution - the final workings of the story's conflict; all loose ends are (usually) tied up here.
  There can be a narrative twist = a surprise ending

Little Red Riding Hood

What is the plot of "Little Red Riding Hood"?

Think of: 

exposition, inciting incident, rising action,
climax, falling action, resolution

Theme

The theme is the central idea in the story. It is the thought that a writer wants to convey about a subject. What could be the author's goal in writing the story? What is he/she trying to make/tell you?

Setting 

• When and where does the story take place
• When = present/past/future; time of day; season
• Where = country, planet, town, building, surroundings 
  
  
• Both create:
• 1) mood = the writer's attitude towards the subject (NOT the characters' mood)
• 2) atmosphere = the feeling the setting evokes (mysterious, happy, eerie etc.)

Characters

• Protagonist - "good guy - person audience is rooting for", main character that solves conflict

• Antagonist - "bad buy - person audience wants to fail", creates conflict for the main character

• Secondary characters - move the plot along, may not be involved in conflict
  

Character -> traits

Character traits = physical and personality characteristics revealed through:

• What the character him-/herself does & says 

• What the other characters say or do about the character

• What the author states directly

• What the author implies (suggests/not explicitly written)
