Select a short story from one of the books on the cart at the front of the room.
Make sure you pick a story that seems interesting.
Read it.
Take note of the title and author.
Write a brief summary of the action.
Did you like it? Why or why not?
2.
Select a new story.
Make a traditional plot diagram (Freytag’s pyramid) in order to make a visual representation of the story.
How does the story adhere to or differ from an “ideal” plot? If it does not have a traditional plot, is it still a story, or is it something else?
