I personalize my learning
about the parts of literary
plot by completing this
three-part activity.

11. - I learned that without the plot, there is no
story. So to have a complete story, you should
know the different parts of a storyline. It can
help you to make a beautiful story someday.
NEW INPUTS
1

12. - When I was in high school we were told to
make a short skit about bullying. At that
time we didn’t know what to do first. And
so, what we did was research for some
guide for us to start our work. And we
discovered the different kinds of storyline.
After that, we got to finish our skit.
CONNECTIONS
2

13. - I could use these learning's by making a
story about viruses and bacteria that
connect to my field. After making a story, I
could show this to my friends and family
and they can as well share it to their friends.
