Activity Overview
A theme is a central idea, subject, or message in a story. Many stories have more than one important theme, and fairy tales often use the theme to help teach a lesson. For this activity, students will identify and illustrate the main theme in The Frog Prince and support the theme with evidence from the text. One theme is the importance of keeping a promise or sticking to your word.
