Plot Diagram Foldables: Story Elements Collection for Middle Grades Common Core

What educators are saying
Description
This resource includes everything you need to teach story elements and the plot pyramid to your middle grades students.
This Story Elements Plot Foldable Collection includes:
Plot Structure Pyramid Foldable Template (blank and labeled)
6-Tab Elements Foldable Templates (blank and labeled)
Alternate 5-Tab Elements Foldable Templates (blank and labeled) - no Inciting Incident
Plot Pyramid Structure Foldable with Cut-Out Tabs
Plot Pyramid Structure Graphic Organizer with Key Questions
NEW! Elements of Plot Colorful Poster Set!
Step-by-step directions for each foldable type (including pictures)
Plot Notes Chart that includes symbols, characteristics, and definitions for writing inside foldables
Elements covered include: Exposition, Inciting Incident, Rising Action, Climax, Falling Action, and Resolution.
I like to teach Inciting Incident as a separate term and placed between the Exposition and Rising Action on the pyramid. However, in case you do not wish to include it this way, all activities include a version that totally omits the Inciting Incident, which is the reason for the Alternate 5-Tab version of the Elements Foldable.

These activities are Common Core aligned for the middle grades as they direct students to analyze plot structure and elements of plot in a fiction story.
