Introduction

Hey reader! We will be continuing our work on theme today by thinking of common topics that happen in children's literature. Topics are NOT themes, but they can help us connect our story and characters to a theme that is supported with text evidence.

Some common topics. in children's literature are: courage, hope, family, dreams, differences, friendship, kindness, honesty, doing the right thing, being yourself, jealousy, and acceptance. 

After we can identify a topic in our text, we can think... what did the characters learn about this topic? How did the characters grow? Then we can identify the theme!

Stop and Jot

In Your Notebook:  Read for 30 minutes. Do you think some of your topics relate to your text? Pick a few and write down the themes/lessons that the characters might learn based upon the topics.
