Practice sequencing by putting the events of One Dark Night in order. First, the boy counts the seconds between lightening and thunder to see how far away the storm is. Next the boy notices a stray cat wanting to come inside because he is afraid of the storm. When the cat comes inside and drops her newborn kitten, the boy realized she wasn’t afraid. She was just trying to protect her kitten. The cat returns outside two more times to get two more of her babies. The boy helps her on the last trip when the storm is finally there. The stray cat climbed into the boy’s bathrobe when all of her cats had been retrieved. They slept together.

When we talk about plot, we are referring to the beginning, the rising action, the climax, the falling action, and the resolution of the story. Try to figure out these events in the plot of One Dark Night.

The plot of One Dark Night: The beginning (exposition) is when we meet the main character, the boy, and realize that a storm is coming. The rising action is the part when the boy sees a stray cat that is afraid and wants to come indoors. The climax (or OH NO MOMENT) is when the boy understands that the cat has more kittens to save and will continue to go out into the storm until they are all safe. The falling action is when the boy goes into the storm to help the cat in her rescue. The resolution is at the end, when all of the cats are safe in the boy’s bathrobe.
