Description
All readers need tools to record, organize and process their thinking about text.
The Reading Toolkit for Plot Structure is a collection of tools that readers can use while learning plotline and story structure.
Readers and Writers must understand the PLOT ELEMENTS of a story.
PLOT STRUCTURE of a narrative is commonly presented visually as a STORY MOUNTAIN that illustrates how the tension builds through the course of story events.
These PLOT STRUCTURE STORY MOUNTAIN ORGANIZERS will help students ‘see’ how narratives are built.
