Recognizing plot structure is an important step in understanding and analyzing how good stories are told--whether it's a short story, a classic novel, or a film. These digital and printable plot diagram templates and plot structure quizzes are a good way to help students visualize a plot by recognizing and filling out the key components from a story. Whether you're doing a novel study, a film class, a creative writing unit, or any other lesson about storytelling, these engaging activities serve as a valuable study tool or assessment tool for your classroom.

With twelve different plot diagram templates--7 digital and five printable--there's always one that works for your students and your lesson. Included are templates that help teach the traditional, five-element plot structure--exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution (or denouement). Additionally, there are designs with space to include the inciting incident or conflict within a story as well as the protagonist, antagonist, and setting. Plus, this bundle includes eight differentiated plot structure quizzes--five digital and three printable. The digital quizzes are editable Google Forms, and they automatically grade every submission (saving you time). The printable versions come with easy, clear answer keys.
