This test is due Friday.

Open a google doc.

You are to list three themes of The Secret Garden, and give two examples of each. If you need to watch the theme video again, you may. (Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H6GCe7hmmA&t=285s  )

 This should be very neat. Your answers must be written in paragraph form. Here's an example:
