= = =Room 4 page on STORY WRITING =

=The Parts of a Story=

The main parts of a story are **character**(s), **plot** and **setting**. You may have heard these terms before. Every story has characters. The characters can be adults, children, or even animals. In some stories, objects with human traits and voices are characters, like the teacup in Beauty and The Beast, for example.
