Elements of Fiction

Foreshadowing is...

• the main story in a text
• a play about ridiculous and absurd situations
• clues that hint at events that will occur later in the plot

Joseph and Caitlin were choosing the players for their teams. It was Caitlin's turn to choose, and only Jason was left. Caitlin said, "Jason."

We can infer that…

• Jason was the best player.
• Caitlin wanted Jason on her team.
• Jason was not a very good player.
• Caitlin had a hard time choosing a team member.

When making an inference, the most important thing is...

• What you know about the topic
• The topic of the text
• The characters in the text
• Being able to prove your inference using evidence from the text.

What is verbal irony?

• When what is said is different than what is meant
• When what happens is the opposite of what is expected
• When the audience knows something a character doesn't know.
