01

What Students Need to Do

Students read stories, drama, and poetry closely. They analyze literary elements, language, structure, and point of view, then use text evidence to explain meaning and theme.

02

What Mastery Looks Like

Students identify key literary elements and explain how they work together. They support an interpretation of theme, character, or speaker with well-chosen text evidence.

03

Common Misconceptions

Students may retell events instead of explaining how details shape meaning. They may confuse theme with topic, or identify figurative language without explaining its effect.

04

How to Assess It

Give students a short poem or prose passage. Ask them to name one theme and cite two details that develop it.

1. 01

   Give groups plot, character, setting, and conflict cards to arrange and connect for a short story.

2. 02

   Ask students to write: How does one choice by the character help reveal the story’s theme?

3. 03

   Play Evidence Match, where teams pair interpretation cards with supporting quotations from a shared passage.

4. 04

   Compare a song lyric and poem about the same topic, then note how each writer creates a different message.
