Ask students if they found any similarities in the different storylines of their favorite movies and discuss them briefly as a whole class.
Explain that they probably did because most stories follow a basic dramatic structure. Project Freytag’s Pyramid and explain: Gustav Freytag analyzed Greek and Shakespearean drama and noticed a pattern in the way the stories were told. He viewed the dramatic structure as a pyramid or triangle, and we can apply this dramatic structure to many stories, novels and films. Hand out copies and have students take notes. Ask a student volunteer to see if they think their movie fits this structure and have student share aloud, or get up and use projected pyramid as model as they explain their story.
Guided practice and monitoring:
Bring out the story “The Necklace,” and tell students that they should work together to locate the different parts of the dramatic structure as they read in small groups.
Students discuss where the exposition, rising action, climax and resolution are and plot them on second side of pyramid hand out.
Review as a whole class, field questions, check for understanding, re-teach students as needed; explain you will be looking at this structure throughout the unit.
