Three-Act Story

Text Structure #14

Worksheet Description

This worksheet focuses on the 3-Act Structure, a model commonly used in narrative writing and storytelling. It is designed for students to identify and summarize the events that occur in each of the three acts: the setup, the confrontation, and the resolution. The worksheet provides a separate box for each act, prompting students to distill the main events or elements of the story within these structural parts. This helps in understanding how stories are constructed and how they progress from beginning to end.

The worksheet is intended to teach students the basic structure of storytelling, which is divided into three distinct acts. Act 1 is usually about establishing characters and setting, Act 2 involves the central conflict or complication, and Act 3 brings about the climax and resolution. By completing this worksheet, students learn to analyze and structure a narrative in a clear and organized manner. This understanding is crucial for both interpreting stories and for crafting their own written narratives effectively.
