RHYMES A rhyme scheme is the pattern of sounds that repeats at the end of a line or stanza. Rhyme schemes can change line by line, stanza by stanza, or can continue throughout a poem. Rhyme scheme patterns are formatted in different ways. The patterns are encoded by letters of the alphabet. Lines designated with the same letter rhyme with each other.

LITERARY ELEMENTS OF STORY CHARACTER SETTING PLOT CONFLICT POINT OF VIEW 24 1. CHARACTER A character is a person, animal, being, creature, or thing in a story. Writers use characters to perform the actions and speak dialogue, moving the story along a plot line. 25 2 TYPES OF CHARACTERS MAJOR MINOR CHARACTER CHARACTER 26 A. Major Character In literature, a major character is defined as a character that is central to the development and resolution of the story's conflict. 27 2 TYPES OF MAJOR CHARACTERS PROTAGONIST ANTAGONIST VS 28 PROTAGONIST This is the main character, around which the whole story revolves. The decisions made by this character will be affected by a conflict from within, or externally through another character, nature, technology, society. 29 ANTAGONIST This character, or group of characters, causes the conflict for the protagonist. 30 B. Minor Character ✘ These are the other characters in a story. They are not as important as the major characters, but still play a large part in the story. Their actions help drive the story forward. They may impact the decisions the protagonist or antagonist make, either helping or interfering with the conflict. 31 Five Different Traits of Characters 1. Foil 2. Static 3. Dynamic 4. Round 5. Stock 32 1. Foil Character ✘ A foil is a character that has opposite character traits from another, meant to help highlight or bring out another’s positive or negative side. Many times, the antagonist is the foil for the protagonist. 33 2. Static Character ✘ Characters who are static do not change throughout the story. Their use may simply be to create or relieve tension, or they were not meant to change. A major character can remain static through the whole story. 34 3. Dynamic Character ✘ Dynamic characters change throughout the story. They may learn a lesson, become bad, or change in complex ways. 35 4. Round Character ✘ These characters have many different traits, good and bad, making them more interesting. 36 5. Stock Character ✘ These are the stereotypical characters Ex. boy genius, ambitious career person, faithful sidekick, mad scientist, 37 PETA 1: “Doble-Kara” “"dopplegänger," Choose a scene with two characters from any fictional stories/literature. Afterwards, present a short skit portraying the two characters and the scenario in the story. 38 Setting 39 2. Setting It is where the story happens. This is the world where the characters live. Setting also provides and sets the moods and feelings in the story. It dictates the social environment, the way of communication, how should the feelings characters dress, the way they speak etc. Settings can be a place, the weather, the atmosphere, the season etc. 40 Ex. In the paradise, it was summer were it was sunny and trees and flowers bloom. Green grass are healthily growing in the ground. - the example implies somewhat a happy place to be, it is bright and positive. 41 Point of View 42 ✘ Also known as POV. This is the perspective of the story. In here, the author chooses “who” is to tell the story by determining the point of view. Depending on who the narrator is, he/she will be standing at one point and seeing the action. This viewpoint will give the narrator a partial or whole view of events as they happen. 1 st Person Point of View Personal type of POV. Here, the writer tells the story from his/her perspective and uses the pronoun “ I”. “ I NEVER GIVEN MUCH THOUGHT OF HOW I’D DIE BUT, DYING IN THE PLACE OF SOMEONE YOU LOVE SEEMS LIKE A GOOD WAY TO GO.”- Stephanie Mayer ✘ 44 2 nd Person Point of View In here, the author gives the reader a certain level of experience to be one of the characters in the story. Second person is a point of view where the reader is addressed directly. In fiction, a second person narration is often used to transform the reader into a character, as a means of drawing them closer to the story.it uses pronouns your, yours, yourself, yourselves 45 You are suddenly awaken by the sound of footstep near your bed. You suddenly, felt afraid and cold sweats break out from your forehead, Who was waLking when you live all alone? 46 2 nd Person Point of View EXAMPLE: You are suddenly awaken by the sound of footstep near your bed.

Oftentimes the Narrator does not know the emotions or the reasons behind what was happening because he is just a bystander or a witness ✘ Ex. He saw her playing the guitar inside her room. 49 OMNISCIENT 3rd Person POV- ✘ Method of storytelling in which the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all of the characters in the story. This POV is also called “God-like Narration” for in this narration, the narrator have the powers to only know, every thoughts of every characters, but, it can also take you to the characters’ past and future. ✘ Ex. A prime example of the third-person omniscient point of view is Leo Tolstoy's renowned and character- heavy novel "Anna Karenina" which is told from multiple points of view. 50 5.PLOT The plot is the story, and more specifically, how the story develops, unfolds, and moves in time. 51 5 Elements of Plot 1.
