A plot is the sequence of actions or incidents occurring in a story (often in chronological order). In the play Driving Miss Daisy, the author Alfred Uhry relies on plot to show the lives of his main characters Hoke and Daisy.
Today, please examine the play for its plot. Use the handout sheet to track the major events of the play and how the playwright begins, develops, and ends the plot. What central events set off a chain of events (cause and effect) in the play? Follow the MAJOR events in the play and how these events CAUSE an EFFECT that creates a chain of events.
When you have completed your sheet and analysis of the play, please turn in this sheet for participation credit.
If you finish early, I know you are stressed about completing your project for Ms. Gamzon. Please use any time remaining today completing her assignment. Don't waste your time in the lab! No music, no distractions, no wandering around procrastinating! Get your work done!

Also please read "Being a Playwright" (the handout from last class) please do so and complete three of the five exercises at the end of the chapter IN YOUR JOURNAL.
