SWBAT… Explain how different literary elements

(conflict, characterization, setting) develop theme.

Conflict: What is it? Man vs. man

One character against another e.g. When Parris and Proctor have a verbal fight.

Man vs. self When a character struggles with something internally e.g. Jesse can’t decide if he should follow Abel to the army at

the end; it’s his internal struggle. Man vs. nature

When a character has to endure natural disasters or hardship (and it usually reveals the strength of the character)

In Where the Red Fern Grows, Billy has to survive on his own in the woods despite the mountain lions roaming around.

Man vs. society When one or two characters struggle against a societal norm Rosa Parks: she struggles against the norm of segregation
