Today, we took notes on the basic elements of PLOT. These include: The exposition (setting, characters - antagonist, protagonist), the conflict/problem, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution (or conclusion). We ended class with a fun read aloud: The Remarkable, Farkle McBride in which students practiced identifying the elements of plot. Academic Vocabulary Knowledge is ESSENTIAL to our learning, so students are encouraged to pracitce and study these definitions all year long. They can also be found on our "CYBER WALL" tab on this blog!
Homework: Worksheet: Read a short passage and identify the plot elements. We will be testing over our academic vocabulary next Thursday.
