WELCOME TO MISTER DOBERT’S BLOG!

Thank you for reading this.  That means you’re actually doing your homework.

Read on to see the directions for tonight’s homework.

HOMEWORK:

On a fresh sheet of loose leaf paper, neatly copy the following sentence:

“The quick, brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.”

 

AND JUST IN CASE YOU NEVER FINISHED YOUR FLASHCARDS …

  • plot – what happens in a story, usually develops in five stages
  • exposition – introduces the characters and the setting, often introduces the conflict
  • rising action – moves the plot forward, shows how the conflict becomes more complicated
  • climax – the moment of greatest interest
  • falling action – eases suspense, reveals how the main character begins to resolve the conflict
  • resolution – ties up loose ends, sometimes an unexpected twist
  • foreshadowing – hinting at future actions
