Kara+-+Timed+BCR+2+-+Theme

The theme in “The Ugly Duckling” is “don’t judge a book by its cover”. The young duckling was not like his brothers, he was grey and ugly. One day though, after running away, he catches his reflection and notices how much he has changed and how beautiful he now looks. It’s like how in like you may start out different and with nothing but after a few years you will be the same as everyone else and you might have more that you did before. Like how in the story the ducking started out very different and with no friends but by the end of the story he was the same as the rest of his kind and had many friends.

 * Score: ** 3


 * Reflection: ** To get a better grade I could have explained why I chose this theme and how it applied to the story better. I answered the question that was asked of me and cited information from the text that supported my answer but I never explained it. Looking back now I realize that I just kept talking about what was in the story and never even explained.
