“Review pages 75-83 in the Norton which cover plot, and read/re-read Susan Glaspell’s “Trifles” on 1197-1207. Then complete the Plot Diagram handout .Map out the plot of the play by identifying the elements that correspond to the Freytag’s Pyramid labels on the handout. You must type your responses; if you have trouble with the pyramid formatting, you can type a detailed list addressing each of the following requirements rather than trying to add text boxes on the pyramid. Be sure to properly cite page numbers per MLA.
Instructions
Identify three pieces of important information we learn in the exposition, three plot points for the rising action, identify the climax, two plot points for the falling action, and the two pieces of information from the conclusion. The aforementioned points do not need to be complete sentences–absolutely no quotations are permitted, but you must provide specific page numbers for each point you identify (MLA citation). For the conflict, provide two complete sentences: identify the conflict in one and then provide an explanation of why you believe that to be the conflict in the second.
This assignment must be typed and uploaded as a .doc or .docx file (default for Microsoft Word) . If you cannot format responses on the triangle graphic (inserting textboxes), type your homework in bulleted list format but ensure you label each point you identify as exposition, rising action, etc.”
