We have a QUIZ on Friday, September 4th over Literary Elements. We made flash cards in class today. Students should use the flash cards to help study the terms and their definitions. Students will also need to be able to identify the main character and setting of a story that is read to them. If your child has misplaced the flash cards, the information below can also help them prepare for the quiz.
Characters- the people (or animals) in the story
Setting- when and where the story takes place
Plot- what happens in the story; the problem and solution
Protagonist- the person the story is mostly about who faces a challenge or problem
Antagonist- the person who opposes (or causes) the problem in the story
Theme- a life lesson learned in the story
Summary- the main ideas or details from the story
Character Trait- a word that describes a character based on what he/she does, says, thinks, or feels
