Themes cover the entire book. It’s the message. Authors develop theme through their characters, the characters’ actions, what happens as a result, and even word choice and writing style help make a theme. What was the theme for this book? This rubric shows how you can evaluate your work on describing the theme.
| Attempt is missing or barely started. | Event is incorrect or not clearly described. | Event is somewhat unclear or may not be a true spoiler (If your event is in the beginning of the book or not that interesting, then it may not worry people if they know it before they start reading.) | Event is clearly described and is certainly something a reader wants to discover on their own! |
| Missing | 0 | 1 | 2 |
