Write a first-person narrative essay about an event that impacted your life. Include the conflict and the resolution in your narrative and develop the story line appropriately to engage the reader. Include the following parts to your paper. These points are also known as the five points of narrative writing.

1. Exposition / Prologue – This provides background and sets the stage for your narrative.
2. Rising Action – This develops the conflict of the narrative.
3. Climax or Turning Point – This is the highest point of intensity in your narrative.
4. Falling Action – This recounts events that happen after the climax of your narrative.
5. Resolution – This is different than a conclusion since it conveys how the conflict of the narrative was resolved. 

In addition to the five-point development of your narrative, utilize key literary elements for communicating your narrative such as plot, setting, theme, and dynamic characterization.
