Organization Style – set up intro, body px’s, conclusion
INTRO – BACKGROUND = introduce novel title, author, bit of plot
Specific, detailed plot events for EACH body
Remember topic sentences
Three integrated quotes w/in-text citations (PAGE #’s for novel)
For Common Lit quote – introduce article title and author
Works Cited – set up format for BOTH novel and article; URL’s can be copied/pasted from Google Classroom

4. Character Arc - the personal journey a character takes throughout a novel
The Change Arc: the protagonist undergoes a radical personal change that transforms him/her from one type of person to a totally different type of person.
The Growth Arc:  the protagonist overcomes an internal opposition (weakness, fear, the past etc.) while he faces an external opposition; as a result, he becomes a fuller, better person. He’s still pretty much who he was, just upgraded to Protagonist 2.0.
The Shift Arc (variant of the Growth Arc): the protagonist changes his perspective, learns different skills, or gains a different role. The end-result is not “better” or more than the starting point, just different. The protagonist has not overcome a grand inner resistance; he/she simply gained a new set of skills or assumed a new position, maybe discovered a talent he forgot he had, or began a different vocation.
The Fall Arc: commonly known as a “tragedy”, the Fall Arc follows the protagonist as he dooms himself and/or others, and declines into insanity, immorality, or death.
