Conflict Chart Tips

Directions: In order to complete an effective conflict chart, please follow the

instructions below.

1. The conflict chart needs three (3) examples of EACH conflict and three (3) quotes

per category. Specifically, this means:

-- for person vs. person, you may include up to three (3) different person vs. person conflicts.

-- for person vs. nature, you may include up to three (3) different person vs. nauture conflicts.

-- for person vs. society, you may include up to three (3) different person vs. society conflicts

-- for person vs. himself/herself, you may include up to three (3) different internal conflicts.

Note: For internal conflicts, be sure to identify specific emotions (i.e. respect vs. envy)

2. In the citations section, make sure to use the parts of the quotes that actually show

the specific conflicts that you plan to discuss.

3. In the explanations section, be sure to avoid summarizing. Instead, please make

inferences! Discuss how the author uses literary devices to develop the conflict; this

means you must mention literary devices (i.e. similes, metaphors, foreshadowing,

symbolism, etc.) throughout your chart.

4. We strongly encourage students to compare and contrast the conflicts in this novel

to conflicts from other works. You may compare and contrast any work of

literature that you previously studied in your English class. Afterall, this is a part of

analyzing literature! This portion of course goes in the explanations section of the

chart.

5. Always write in present tense (“Jack feels frustrated” instead of “Jack felt

frustrated”).

6. Proofread your chart before final submission!!! Write your name on your chart.
