The plot it the basic action of the book. It will be an outline of the "question", the rising action, the climax, the denouement, and the conclusion.
A summary us pretty much the same thing, although it can be longer and include more detail.
Yes, a book can have more than one theme.

Yes, a book can have several themes.
if a plot and a summary are the same thing then how come i need to include both on a project and what is a climax and denouement. This is for 6th grade
I suggest you ask your teacher just what s/he wants for a plot and for a summary.
The climax is the high point of the action, when the problem or mystery is soloved. The denouement comes after the climax and tells what happened afterwards. Check these sites for more details.
