  • Pair Share: Share your Protagonist Sketch with a partner or two in class. As you read the sketch, write down a couple of questions to help the writer develop the character more. Will this character be revealed via direct or indirect characterization? 
  • Next, work on your story outline by using the Plot steps. Simply copy the bullet points and fill them out on the same google doc you've started for the character sketch. This should be turned into our Google Classroom before block day begins. 
Plot -
  • Beginning
    • exposition: What other characters will be part of this story? What is the setting? Antagonist?

      • Darkest moment in the climax? 
      • Epiphany or moment of truth? 
  •  End
    • falling action:
      • How are all the loose ends tied up? 
      • What is the meaning that the reader leaves the story with? 
      • What gift item will accompany this story? How is it related to the story?
