Venn diagram template
Two overlapping circles to compare two things: what only one has goes in its own circle, what both share goes where they overlap. Or three circles for three things. Type the names, or leave lines to write them on.

The six parts
Exposition: the characters, the setting and how things are at the start. Conflict: the problem the main character faces. Rising action: the events that build toward the turning point. Climax: the turning point, where the tension is highest. Falling action: what happens because of it. Resolution: how the problem is settled and the story ends.
To label
The blank version leaves each box’s name to fill in, with the six names in a word bank under the diagram. Its second page is the answer key, the same diagram with every part named.
