THE STORY MOUNTAIN
THE STORY MOUNTAIN
REMEMBER the term 'STRUCTURE' from the 'Perspectives of a Pandemic' unit? In this topic, we are going to explore the structure of NARRATIVE TEXT-TYPES.
Remind yourself of the story of 'Goldilocks and the Three Bears'. We can read it together as a class.
Instead of BEGINNING, MIDDLE, and END, literature students use the terms EXPOSITION, CLIMAX, and RESOLUTION.
Draw a story mountain in your book using the diagram below to help you remember NARRATIVE STRUCTURE and these new terms.
You can use Google Drawings to help if you want to make a digital version.
FIVE THINGS!
FIVE THINGS!
Now we know the basic narrative structure, we will explore the literary we will use to talk about the conventions of the structure - or what we expect to find in a narrative text:
SETTING
PLOT
CHARACTER
CONFLICT
THEME
As a class, watch the video below about the Five Elements of a Narrative
Complete the Five Things Quiz for your class to demonstrate your understanding of the FIVE THINGS you need to know about the conventions of narrative structure.

Each of you will be responsible to explain ONE thing from the five - either plot, character, conflict, theme, or setting. As a class, ALL FIVE must be covered so work together to decide how you will do this.
You should record this on the FLIPGRID for your class, so that you can review this later.
