Today we discussed the difference between plot and theme. The plot is the events in the story and the theme is the message the author is trying to get across to the reader. We focused on the different themes, messages or big ideas from our book Cheyenne Again. Please write about some of the themes you discovered in your reading with your partners or what we read-aloud and give examples. For example, one theme was treating the Indians unfairly in school when they taught them lies or left out important facts about their culture and some of the battles they had won. Please write the theme and the reason you think that. Write four to five sentences with the correct punctuation.
I think that the book is about Raceisem. He loses his family in this book.THEY PUT ABALL AND ACHAIN AROUND HIS FOOT!!!!Only one teacher is nice to him.
ReplyDeleteThis book is about Young bull, a ten year-old native american indian.
ReplyDeleteYoung bull is taken by the taking man to a boarding school to be taught the white man's ways. The themes of the book are racism and imperialism. Young bull is treated unkindly by the white men just because he was an indian. For imperialism, the white men believed their culture is better than the indians.
This book is about Young bull, age ten and he gets taken away from his family.I think the theme of the book is Racism.They don't put Indian culture in his books because they lost those wars.
ReplyDeleteThe author wants the reader to think about treating people fairly. The color of your skin is not important. Another theme is family. He wants to get back to his brothers.
ReplyDeleteCheyenne Again is about a boy named Youngbull who has to be seperated from his family to go to school, but it is not what it seems like. They say that he has to forget about being an Indian and they cut his braids. When he tried to run away, THEY LOCKED A BALL AND CHAIN AROUND HIS ANKLE. There is this one teacher though, who is kind to him. She says that he should not let his teachers take away his dreams of being Cheyenne again.

DeleteI think the themes in Cheyenne Again are racism and kindness. We learned about racism and that the American people did not treat the Cheyenne tribe nicely. We learned about kindness and that the only nice teacher put medicine on Young Bull's leg because he ran away and put a bowling ball on his leg for a day. I love Cheyenne Again!!
