"The Interlopers" by Saki (H.H. Munroe) is a story that portrays the theme of hatred resulting in tragedy. This story also has several examples of situational irony which is the contrast between what is said or expected and what actually happens. Three examples of irony will be discussed and how they are significant to the theme. The examples are:1. The men die over something unimportant.2. The struggle for land ownership ends in a tragedy when nature takes their lives.3. The long running feud ended, but no one in the village/town could learn of that as both men died.

As you read To Kill a Mockingbird each week, you will fill out your copy of the Running Theme Log for the theme you have selected. Once you have selected your theme, you will track and analyze it for the next several weeks, so make sure you pick a theme you are most interested in. You must have at least 1 entry per week but will likely find that you will have 3 or more entries a week depending on the theme you selected. There is no maximum for the number of entries you can have, only a limit of at least 1 per week.

This seventh grade annotated inquiry provides students with an opportunity to explore how words affect public opinion through an examination of Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Students will investigate historical sources related to the novel and reactions in the North and South in order to address the compelling question, “Can words lead to war?” This query takes advantage of the mixed messages students often receive about the power of words. Students’ understanding about how words can make a difference is often grounded in discussions of words used to bully, instead of the power of words to encourage reform. This is an ANNOTATED inquiry with additional information on the questions, tasks, and sources within.

Overview: This OER: Understanding Fairytales with a Graphic Organizer was created by Stephanie Werner and as part of the 2024 World Language OER Summer work and training.

The attached Lesson Plan and Graphic Organizer is designed for 7-12 World Language Teachers of Low to Mid level Intermediate Spanish, French or German language learners. It is expected that this Lesson Plan will take students 60 minutes.

This is an activity that includes student's own ideas and beliefs about the central ideas and important parts of the text. Students will also do a bit of writing to support their opinions. This activity gets at the heart of a text. I see this as introductory to deeper dives into theme. This lesson could be structured to be online or face to face. This is written as a class activity but an online discussion could easily be created after students had followed the protocol a few times and seen the discussion that results. This could easily work in many classrooms through high school.

This module is designed for 3rd through 5th graders to explore their names, identity, immigration and cultural lore to find heroic moments in their family history. Using Icelandic immigration, both historical and current, as a model to explore: the meaning and uses of names, the difficulties of language, belonging and identity, and historical storytelling through "Egil's Saga", the student creates a personal definition of a hero. After learning basic interview techniques, the module includes interviewing a family member and identifying a heroic moment to portray through a student created comic. A gallery of comics is displayed for the community viewing including artists statements.

Students often struggle to find theme in literature--one that is not a bumper sticker, a "moral to the story," or anything that could be applied to more than one story. Understanding what theme is, an implicit argument the author is making, is the first step. Then it gets more complicated as they realize that there are wrong answers (the ones that don't make sense with the story), there are undeveloped answers (ones that don't get far enough past motif but are on the right track), and there are many possible correct answers that can be explained and supported with the text. This activity uses the Generate-Sort-Connect-Elaborate strategy in small groups to help students focus on the details of the story and how they contribute to the overall point of the story. It can be used with any piece of literature you deem appropriate for your students.
