iRubric: Identifying The Theme rubric

-the evidence you give are specific events (things people said & did) throughout the whole literary work, and these events clearly relate to the theme you identified
- the support you give goes beyond the characters, you've included some of the other elements of literature as support (mood, tone, setting, plot structure)

- you've mentioned at least 3 specific events (things people said and did) from the whole literary work that connect to the theme you identified AND you explained the details of the event
ex. what the main character is angry about, what they said and did, and to whom, and why

- You've mentioned 1 - 2 specific events as evidence
- AND/OR You've given vague & general support, ex. the main character was angry - this is too vague, explain what they were angry about, what they said and did, and to whom, and why, and how this supports the theme.
- AND/OR your support came from just one part of the literary work, you haven't shown how the theme is throughout the whole piece.

You have identified evidence, but it is not supported by the literary work.
