Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt


 July 30, 2008
B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart
Interjections are words that show feeling or sudden emotion.

 When the feeling is strong, it is followed by an exclamation point. Ouch! You just
ran over my foot.

 Otherwise, separate an interjection from the sentence by following it with a


comma. Wow, spaghetti for dinner again!
Hey!

Interjections can be one or more than one word. Examples of interjections in


sentences are as follows:

Cool! You bought me a new sports car.

Phew, I nearly missed the bus!

Uh, I believe your dog is sitting on my foot.

My goodness, what a large llama!

No way! I'm not giving up my bike.

Notice the punctuation after each conjunction.


Instructions

o 1

Understand the main character. Analyzing the main character is an important


part of discovering the theme. List the physical and intangible attributes of the
main character. Decide if the reader is supposed to identify with the main
character or if she is someone the reader doesn't (or shouldn't) want to be.

o 2

Identify the conflict. The conflict in a short story always involves the main
character. The conflict can be between the main character and another, society
or some force of nature, or within the main character himself. Figure out
specifically who or what the main character is struggling against in the short
story.

o 3

Know how the conflict is resolved. The resolution of the conflict can give the
reader a big clue as to the theme of a short story. Who wins the conflict is the
writer's way of telling the reader which force was better. If an evil main character,
one you wouldn't admire, wins out over some force of nature, the theme will have
a negative slant.

o 4

Make a generalization. Look at the main character, her conflict and how it was
resolved to determine the theme of the story. Start by understanding what the
main character learned in the short story. Then, generalize that lesson to apply to
everyone. If the main character learned not to trust her friend who just won the
lottery, the theme of the short story may be that money changes people
