  2. Contrasts and Contradictions OR Lesson of the Unexpected Notice & Note Signpost #1

  3. Stop and Notice and NoteSignpost #1: Contrasts and Contradictions • When you’re reading and a character acts in a way that contradicts how s/he has acted before or that contrasts with how you would act or that reveals a difference among characters. • You should stop and ask yourself: • “Why is the character acting (or feeling) this way?” • The answers could help you make a prediction or make an inference about the PLOT and CONFLICT. ANCHOR QUESTION

  4. Epiphany i.e. Aha Moment Notice & Note Signpost #2

  5. Stop and Notice and NoteSignpost #2: Epiphany • When you’re reading and suddenly a character realizes, understands, or finally figures something out (an “Ah-ha!”)… • You should stop and ask yourself: • “How might this realization be important or change things?” • If the character figured out a problem, you probably just learned about the CONFLICT. • If the character understood a life lesson, you probably just learned the THEME. ANCHOR QUESTION

  9. Stop and Notice and NoteSignpost #4: Words of the Wiser • When you’re reading and a character takes the main character aside and gives serious advice that is helpful at this moment in the story but could also be helpful throughout life… • You should stop and ask yourself: • “What’s the life lesson, and how might it affect the character?” • Whatever the lesson is, you’ve probably found a THEME for the story. ANCHOR QUESTION

  11. Stop and Notice and NoteSignpost #5: Repetition • When you’re reading and you notice a word, phrase, object, situation, or idea mentioned over and over… • You should stop and ask yourself: • “Why does this keep showing up again and again?” • The answers will tell you about the THEME and CONFLICT, or they might foreshadow what will happen later.
