Students will be responsible for selecting 5 songs or movies that resonate with them or represents them. The songs can be in their native language. Students will then write a short reflection as to why they feel represented in their music/movie choice. They will also be responsible for identifying a common theme among their choices. ]]> 2023-04-26 14:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2568887349 herreraam2 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2568887350 1. Students will collaborate in small groups. They will be instructed to read a short excerpt and identify the theme of the story. They will questions like: 
1. What is the main idea of the story?
2. What are some of the events in the story?
3. What are some possible themes in this excerpt?
Students will then report back to the class on their findings. 

2. Analyzing Quotes: Students will be provided a selection of quotes that share a similar theme. Students will be instructed to identify the theme and provide a short explanation as to why they think that quotes are connected by that particular theme. ]]> 2023-04-26 14:23:40 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2568887350 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2590353159 2023-05-14 23:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2590353159 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2590353449 Mcgraw Hill - Studysync]]> 2023-05-14 23:49:47 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2590353449 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2590357549 2023-05-14 23:55:36 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2590357549 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2591699866 2023-05-15 17:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2591699866 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592437397 2023-05-16 05:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592437397 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592438152 2023-05-16 05:03:57 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592438152 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592461500 https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRKph3Tc/ - Annotation Website ]]> 2023-05-16 05:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592461500 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592554723 https://lindsayannlearning.com/analyzing-a-song/ - Teacher Blog that does a good job at analyzing songs for theme.]]> 2023-05-16 06:32:57 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592554723 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592556203 2023-05-16 06:33:57 UTC https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2592556203 https://padlet.com/herreraam2/t4uvlntfgc2p1bnp/wish/2593260511 1.
