Determine the Theme: The Lost Light

See reading in a new light in this snowy fantasy story! Students will read a fairy tale about the search for a missing magic lantern that will bring warmth back to the village of Frosthaven. Then, they will need to identify the main problem of the story and the solution to that problem. They will also determine the theme of the story. 

This worksheet was designed for fourth graders learning to analyze a story to find the deeper meaning it is trying to communicate. They can strengthen their understanding of how thematic meaning relates to the literal plot and main idea of a story. The ability to find unstated meaning is vital for later reading and media analysis skills!
