Description
I took several different plot pyramids and turned them into one that I absolutely love to use when I talk about short stories . . . especially in the early Reading Literature Common Core standards. I find it kinda gives my students their story in a nutshell.

My students used this diagram to organize the plots of their own narratives in my Creative Writing class.
I wasn’t sure how using the diagram to create rather than diagram an existing story would play out, but it went well. I’ll definitely use it again.
This was a great way to review plot structure with my students. Thanks!
I like that this has a place for rising and falling incidents. I would like it better if the word conflict was replaced by "inciting incident".
Saved me in a pinch! I feel like it is a great tool to add to any story.
Very useful!
Great graphic organizer for my students!
