  1. Plot, Setting, and Character Obj: I will identify the relationship between setting, plot, and character by analyzing the impact of one on the other. Essential Qs: What is the relationship between setting, character, and plot? Why are internal and external conflicts often found in the same story? Warm Up: Consider the photo —write a description of this setting as it might appear in a story. What might the plot of this story be? What kind of characters might appear in this story?

  2. Notes • Setting—time and place • Characters—”people” in a story • Plot—series of related events (what happens) centered around a conflict • Internal conflict—happens inside a character • External conflict—happens outside of the character

  3. The Clay Marble • How might the setting of the vast, barren plain impact the plot of this story? • So…how is plot related to setting?

  4. Island of the Blue Dolphins • What kind of problem/conflict does the girl experience? • How might this conflict be related to the setting? • So…how is setting related to plot and character?

  5. Plot Development • Exposition—introduces the setting, characters, and usually hints at the problem to come • Rising Action—shows the unfolding of the conflict and how it “grows” or becomes more complicated • Climax– turning point—makes the end possible • Falling Action—eases suspense, shows how the characters will resolve the problem • Resolution—ties up loose ends. Shows how life is after the problem is “solved”—not always happy!
