Elements of Narration (Part 1)

Now remember I said that each discourse type has devices attached to them?
Well the first 5 devices we are going to look at briefly are on the diagram below.

1) Exposition: background (usually the beginning of the story)
2) Rising Action: Event or action that leads to the most exciting part.
3) Climax: The most exciting part, where the most action takes place.
4) Falling Action: The action that happens right after the climax.
5) Resolution: What happens at the end




Remember the movie you just wrote about? Can you identify all of the elements above?
