“Seventh Grade” by Gary Soto
Plot Project
On a large piece of paper (or a poster), create a plot mountain shape and include important details from in the story in the correct places on the mountain.
GOOD: Neatly draw a mountain shape.
BETTER: Neatly draw something different that has the same shape as a mountain (example – roller coaster).
BEST: Neatly draw a plot shape that MATCHES something in the story (example – water fountain).
- Label titles for each part of the mountain.
- Include details from the story, “Seventh Grade” by Gary Soto. HINT: Use bullets.
- At least 2 for EXPOSITION.
- At least 2 for RISING ACTION.
- Only 1 for CLIMAX.
- 1 or 2 for FALLING ACTION.
- 1 for RESOLUTION.
- Spelling counts.
- Neatness counts.
- Color counts.
HINT: The whole story was posted on the blog a few days ago. 🙂
