Directions for page 22
Complete the Theme Tree for the book Freak the Mighty.
*Remember Theme is like the message, or lesson, of the story?
Step 1: Think about the story of Freak the Mighty and list some theme topics on the trunk of the theme tree (Use page 20 in your notebook)
Step 2: Pick the topic that you think is the strongest, best, or most interesting.
Step 3: Find, and record in your graphic organizer, four pieces of text evidence from Freak the Mighty. (Like we did with Christian the Lion) Think - what happened in the story that made me think about this theme/topic.
Step 4: Analyze your text evidence and think about the message, or lesson, you learn. Ask yourself, "What can I learn about ____________ ?"
Step 5: Write your "Theme Statement" on the lines provided.
Step 6: Take a picture of your finished Theme Tree.
***Be sure to WRITE NEATLY
***Be sure to WRITE DARK (Pen or fine tip marker)
After Thanksgiving vacation I would like to have each of you present your theme tree to the group, (whether we are virtual or in person) so make your theme tree look as good as possible.
