  5. Literature Circle #5 • 5 Minutes: Go over the questions to section/week #5 as a group. • 10 Minutes: Using the list of author’s craft tools I give you, discuss which craft tools you have seen in the book and which tools overlap with Othello. • 15 Minutes: Find the theme chart in the back of the study guide. • Continue completing the 2nd column with evidence of each of the topics. • Continue completing column 3: How do these topics compare to Othello? • What are the themes (lessons we can learn) about these topics? • Consider themes from the novel. • Then, put stars next to themes that apply to Othello too.

  6. Comparative Claim Practice • I want you to start thinking about themes (lessons about people or society) that Othello and your novel have in common. (You can use the chart for your novel to help you.) • On the notecard, write your name. Then, write a comparative claim that tells a theme the two texts have in common with THREE reasons why (think: characters [R1], conflicts [R2], & authors’ craft tools [R3]). • 2 titles (underlined) • 2 authors (names spelled correctly) • 1 specific, debatable idea • 3 reasons: characters, conflict, authors’ craft tools • 1 complete sentence
