Learning Intentions

  • I am learning how to best build and grow the plot of a narrative.
  • I am learning the difference between tone and mood in narrative writing.
  • I am learning the connections between character traits, dialogue, conflict, and theme as they form the plot.

Success Criterias

  • I can differentiate between tone and mood.
  • I can use dialogue rooted in character traits when conflict arises to teach a theme as they all develop the plot of a narrative.
