Class reviewed what THEME is an how to find it. Theme is not a topic. Watch the video to discover the 4 step process (Topics, Contextual Evidence, Theme Sentence, & Theme) to discover how to find theme.
In groups, students used the 4 step process by coming up with their own topics to Beyonce's "Pretty Hurts" lyrics. Once they created topics, they passed their poster to another group, and now all groups had to find "contextual evidence" in her lyrics to support the topics chosen. Then the posters were passed again, and this time each group had to create a theme sentence, and then the posters were passed back to each original group and they crossed out parts of the theme sentence until they found their theme.
