This video is part of the Continue to Know with WHRO TV series. Watch LaTissha Boyce teach how to identify the conflict and resolution in a fictional text.

 The teacher will review the six phases of plot (exposition, inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution). The teacher will read a story of choice out loud, identifying the phases of the plot. Students will then create their own plot comic strip, labeling each phase of plot. Students may create the comic strip on the provided comic strip template, or generate a digital version using the provided Plot Comic Strip Google Slide presentation. Students will share their plot comic strips out loud, identifying each phase of plot in their reading.
