In this activity, you will practice using a plot diagram. reread edgar allan poe’s short story “the tell-tale heart” and diagram the plot structure of the story. if you’re not sure how to start diagramming a plot, begin by summarizing the text in a sentence or two and making notes about the key characters and plot points. you can also use this online tool to guide you through the steps of building a diagram for this story. provide details from the “the tell-tale heart” for each part of the plot. at the exposition phase, note the characters, setting, and conflicts. you can create an image in a drawing program or an online tool, and then insert it in the answer space. or you can simply type in text for each part of the plot.

The young man is caring for the older man, The man's eye is what drives the younger man insane enough to murder the man and chop his body up to hide it under the floorboards. Cops come that night (or the next day, I don't remember) because neighbors heard screaming. The young man said he had a nightmare. He invited the cops inside and sat them for tea right over where he buried the man's body. He thinks he got away with the perfect crime and there's no way he could get caught. But he starts hearing the heartbeat of the old man and some readers translate that to his guilt, others say it's the pressure of getting away with the perfect crime and having to keep it a secret that drove him mad. He finally lost his mind in front of the police and admitted to it, pulling up the floor boards for them.
