I'm trying to explain plot of a story, and it's challenging for students to understand rising and falling action. Any suggestions? I've looked for slideshows and also for suggestions on using picture books. I can't find specific lesson plans. I literally need a script right now for teaching this concept, because I'm stuck!
I've been looking for ESL-friendly lesson plans, but this is very hard concept (in my opinion) even for native English speakers.
I've spent hours researching on TPT, pinterest, Google, blogs...but I keep finding a lot of the same ideas. Making a paper book...but I need more "language" and guiding questions for the five parts of plot. Also, how do you explain where conflict falls into this triangle?
