English Language Arts and Literacy | Grade : 5

Strand - Speaking and Listening

Cluster - Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas

[SL.5.5] - Include multimedia components and visual displays in presentations when appropriate to enhance the development of main ideas or themes.


Resources:


  • Main/central idea
    Concept illustrated or position taken by a text as a whole, whether stated explicitly (as in a how-to guide explaining a process or an essay defending a thesis) or conveyed implicitly (as in a novel or collection of short stories illustrating a theme).
  • Theme
    Central message or abstract concept made concrete through representation in a literary text. Like a thesis, a theme implies a subject and predicate of some kind: for instance, not just vice as a standalone word, but a proposition such as Vice seems more interesting than virtue but turns out to be destructive. Sometimes a theme is directly stated in a work, and sometimes it is revealed indirectly. A single work may have more than one theme. See Main idea, Moral.
