Now that you understand the elements of plot (exposition, complications, climax and resolution) try writing your own original narrative story, using all of the elements of plot. Your story may be based on true events or may be completely fictional.
Be sure that you begin with an exposition in which you introduce the characters, setting and conflict. Then, include events in which your characters try to overcome complications as you build toward a climax. Then write a climax in which your characters confront the problem and finally, finish with a resolution in which the problem is solved and your characters find what they are looking for.
Your composition should be no fewer than 400 words and is due in your Google Drive before Monday, September 8th.
