A sequence of actions that happens in the story.

It was a lazy, rainy Friday afternoon, and you and your friends decided to have a movie marathon. You scan the movie list in your notebook and talk about which film to see. Then you ask “What’s the movie about?” Then your friend says “It’s all about a girl who’s desperate about a guy named Jack”.

PLOT ELEMENTS: Brain PracticeESIDERA, Esther Joy L.BSMT – 2C Humanities 13July 13, 2015Mr. Jaime CabreraCentro Escolar University, Philippines

I personalize my learning about the parts of literary

plot by completing this three-part activity.

- I learned that without the plot, there is no story. So to have a complete story, you should know the different parts of a storyline. It can help you to make a beautiful story someday.

NEW INPUTS1

- When I was in high school we were told to make a short skit about bullying. At that time we didn’t know what to do first. And so, what we did was research for some guide for us to start our work. And we discovered the different kinds of storyline. After that, we got to finish our skit.

CONNECTIONS2

- I could use these learning's by making a story about viruses and bacteria that connect to my field. After making a story, I could show this to my friends and family and they can as well share it to their friends.
