Review Comma Rule on Commas with conjunctions & appositives

Mini-Lesson:  Theme verses Main Idea & Paired Passages  Double entry for IN on **theme and main idea Y7rUuGxSyy0SA

Double Entry Journal (write in your IN) Theme: The overall message from a story. It’s the insight into life that you gain through reading. **It is the LESSON LEARNED.** **The theme is NON-specific. **Does not include names of people or places. Main Idea: It is a STATEMENT that quickly SUMS up what the story is about. Who? What? When? Where? Why? Sometimes How? **The main idea is SPECIFIC about the story.

Double Entry Journal: Theme Example: Bravery is not thinking about what the dangers are; it means ignoring them to do what is right even if it means risking your own life. Never say never. Life is about the journey. Friendship is a strong force. Always stand up for what your believe in. Determination is the key to success. Main Idea Example: A 10-year old girl named Anne Marie goes on a dangerous mission in 1943, during the Nazi occupation in Denmark, to save her best friend.
