Writers, have you ever named someone? A brother or sister? A pet? It is an amazing responsibility.
It is time for you to consider names for your story. It is time to think of a title!
Your title, like Charlotte's Web, might have a double meaning. Charlotte's Web is a book about a spider who weaves a web, but we know that webs are also seen as things that are very cleverly made - like the way that Charlotte cleverly saves Wilbur's life. And Because of Winn-Dixie has one of the main character's names in it, but it also tells us something about the book Things happen to Opal because Winn-Dixie is in her life.
Tonight, spend some time thinking about your favorite titles for books, then try to figure out why you think the authors chose them. After you've done that, don't just take the first title that comes to mind, try to come up with a list of ideas, then choose the one that you think really connects to some big ideas you have in your story, and that will really catch a reader's interest.
Please post some of your ideas in the comments. Be sure to read the other comments as well... you never know where inspiration will come from!

For my story about Marie, the teacher, I was thinking about the title, "The Hardest Lesson."
It has a double meaning, because the lesson that Marie is teaching is really hard, but she also is learning a hard lesson about being a teacher.

I wrote a title, that was the setting, for most of the time. I think people should name their title, where their setting is usually at.
