In Writing today, we learned about transitions (CCSS W.1.2), a necessary element for narratives. We learned that we should use them to transition from the setting into the plot (from page 1 into page 2) and again between each plot point (from page 2 into page 3). Transitions can be words like: then, next, suddenly. Transitions can also be noises: BOOM! (what happened?), quotations, or cliff hangers. They are words, phrases, or passages which connect one happening to the next.
