I introduced The Bidlack/Thompson/Anderson Three Simple Steps of Literary Analysis, a framework for finding the theme of a work. It may be helpful to use with your independent book, as your extension should demonstrate your understanding of big ideas and themes. We practiced using the steps with a simple children's book, The Sneetches, by Dr. Seuss.
Homework: Work on your independent reading project (it's due one week from today!).
