This compact teaching unit focuses on narrative texts and includes clear instruction and hands-on practice on essential narrative elements such as structure, plot development, exposition, climax, resolution, setting, mood, theme, tone, and character perspective. The material explores key narrative techniques including descriptive writing, showing vs. telling, inner conflict, consistent point of view, narrative voice, and temporal order. Learners gain practical insight into first-person and third-person narration, use of dialogue in narratives, and how to build emotional tension and reader engagement.
Special emphasis is placed on stylistic devices and language use in storytelling, with integrated examples and explanations. Students analyze narrative strategies, pacing, and scene building, and practice using tools like flashbacks, imagery, and metaphor.
