Exposition

The exposition is the

beginning of a story. This part of any plot includes information about characters and their situation.Authors provide readers with

key background information

.

We learn about the

characters

We learn about the settingWe may learn a little about the conflict before it is fully introducedSlide6

Rising Action

Rising action begins with the introduction of conflicts.

Main events in the story begin to occur.The action rises and grows in suspense as the action intensifies.

The characters work to

try to resolve the conflict

as they work towards the climax of the

story.Slide7

Climax

The climax is the

turning point of the story.The moment where the main character acts in such a way that the

plot changes direction.

The

character

may

change in some way (become a dynamic character).The character may make

a decision that directly leads to the resolution

of the conflict.Slide8

Falling Action

All action following the climax is referred to as “falling action.”

Main events are the actions the character has to do to solve the problem

now

that they know the solution or the action that just leads to the resolution.Slide9

Resolution

The conclusion of the story is the resolution. This is the

end of the story. The story’s conflicts are resolved. The conflict may be resolved in a positive way for the main character -OR-

The conflict may be resolved in such a way that there is an ending, but not in favor of the main character.Slide10

Jabberwocky

by Lewis Carroll

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble

in the

wabe

;

All

mimsy were the borogoves,And the mome

raths

outgrabe

.

 

"Beware the

Jabberwock

, my son!

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!

Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

The

frumious

Bandersnatch

!"

 

He took his

vorpal

sword in hand:

Long time the

manxome

foe he sought--

So rested he by the Tumtum

tree,And stood awhile in thought.

 

And, as in uffish

thought he stood,The

Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,

Came whiffling through the

tulgey wood,

And burbled as it came! 

One two! One two! And through and throughThe

vorpal blade went snicker-snack!

He left it dead, and with its headHe went galumphing back.

 "And hast thou slain the

Jabberwock?Come to my arms, my beamish boy!O

frabjous

day!

Callooh

!

Callay

!"

He chortled in his joy.

 

'Twas

brillig

, and the

slithy

toves

Did gyre and

gimble

in the

wabe

;

All

mimsy

were the

borogoves

,

And the

mome

raths

outgrabe
