Students are discussing the fable "The Lantern in the Fog" (theme: helping others). The teacher wants students to respond with details. Teacher: "What lesson does the lantern symbolize?" Isabel: "It symbolizes hope, because in the story the traveler is lost in the fog and needs to find courage to keep believing things will work out." Reed: "It symbolizes hope because the traveler can't see the path, but the lantern doesn't remove the fog—it just gives enough light for the next step, as when the fable says 'He offered the lantern, not directions' (line 14)." Tanya: "The lantern is really cool, and honestly it's my favorite part because the way it glows in the fog is such an interesting and mysterious image to picture." Omar: "So the lantern is about hope and helping—but what would you say the real moral of this whole fable is supposed to be?" Based on the discussion, which student response is most effective because it includes an explanation and specific evidence to support the interpretation?
