    Understanding Plot Diagram

    • Plot is the organized pattern or sequence of events that make up a story, consisting of a series of related incidents.
    • Every plot is divided into five essential elements: Exposition, Rising Action, Climax, Falling Action, and Resolution.

    Exposition

    • Occurs at the beginning of a story, introducing characters, setting, and the main conflict (main problem).
    • Provides background information and establishes the story's foundation.

    Rising Action

    • Develops the conflict(s), building interest or suspense, and creates tension.
    • The story begins to unfold, and the plot thickens.

    Climax

    • The turning point of the story, where the main character faces a conflict.
    • The main character undergoes a significant change or transformation.

    Falling Action

    • Ties up loose ends, resolving the conflict(s) and climax.
    • The story begins to wrap up, and the plot reaches its conclusion.

    Resolution

    • The story comes to a reasonable ending, providing closure.
    • The final outcome or consequence of the story's events.
