ELEMENTS OF A SHORT STORY

(setting, conflict, character, plot, theme and

point of view)

This time class, we will focus the PLOT of the

story.
PLOT- it refers to the arrangement of the
events in the story.
There are five elements to look in the plot:

The exposition – the initial events, the

introduction of the characters, and the
beginning of the story.

The rising Action – the beginning of the

conflict. Compilations arise.

The Climax – this the highest point of interest

in the story. It is the turning point that aims
towards the conclusion of the story.

The falling Action – the events that occur

which begin to resolve the conflict.

Denouement – this is the final outcome of the

story.

4. APPLICATION

This time, I will group you into five

according to the color of your nametags. Each
group will present a different task.
Group 1 – Present the exposition of the story.
