Please write one to two more entries about theme in your notebook (or on loose-leaf paper if you left your notebook at school - just keep the papers safe in your folder!) 

If you're focused and efficient, this assignment should take less than 20 minutes. Please do not spend more than 30 minutes on it. The goal is to set you up for success with a lot of ideas next week!

When you're finished, please take a picture of what you have written and attach it to this assignment. Make sure that the image is readable (if you have a phone, that usually takes a MUCH clearer picture than your Chromebook!)

If you need guidance on what steps to follow, you can find a slides version of our lessons on themes attached.

Please make sure your Story Catcher for All Summer in a Day is completed (you may need to finish the "Themes" and "Noteworthy Craft Moves" boxes!), take a picture, and attach it to this assignment.

See me if you need a new Story Catcher!

Now that you have spent some time writing about a text (or some texts!), please submit three themes below. These are hopefully themes you've come up with over the course of the week. They can all be about the same text, or they can be about different ones. Ideally, one of them is the theme you're hoping to write more about for your first essay. Please number the themes and submit them in a list format!

Example:
1. Love can cause people to reject their own culture.
2. Poverty can transform even honest people into criminals.
3. The will to survive makes people forget their basic humanity.
