Instruction: Today we will learn how to use quotes from text, characters’ actions, and dialogue to determine a theme.
We will read Ch. 3 of The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan with a graphic organizer to jot down quotes from text, characters' actions, and dialogue to support determining a theme. Students will stop and identify character actions, thoughts, and dialogue that reveal theme on the organizer.
