This document provides an overview and objectives for a lesson on ambiguity and theme in the short story "The Lady, or the Tiger?" by Frank Stockton. Students will examine ambiguity and identify themes through completing guided notes and a KWL chart. They will learn that ambiguity leaves a text open to multiple interpretations, while theme is the central idea or opinion conveyed. A video and class discussion are used to identify common themes in literature. Students then make predictions about the short story before filling out the "L" section of the KWL chart to summarize what they have learned.
