PROMPT
Why the Sky Is Far Away is a Nigerian folktale that tells how the sky got
angry at people for being greedy and wasteful. Like most folktales, it
teaches an important lesson to readers.
Imagine you are a teacher who needs to explain to students the difference
between a story’s topic and its theme. Write a paragraph that you could
hand out to students that explains this difference. Demonstrate the
difference using examples from Why the Sky Is Far Away.
PLAN
Write definitions for the terms topic and theme. Under each
definition, write notes about the text that you could use to
demonstrate the meaning of the word.
