Connected+Connector


 * Connected Connector **

Your job is to find connections between the story your group is reading and the world outside – people, places, events, and authors. This means connecting the reading to your own life, to happenings at school or in the community (connection to self), to similar events at other times and places, or to other people or problems that you are reminded of (connection to world). You might see connections between this book and other writings on the same topic or by the same author (connection to text). There are no right answers here – whatever the reading connects __you__with is worth sharing. Your finding or identifying connections is why the author wrote the story (theme). In literary terms, the theme can also be defined as a universal message about the human condition. If you have any questions, ask using the discussion bubbles. .
