Joy,
I don't think I understand your question about themes and thematic
teaching. What is it that you want to actually do? I'm so confused.
I never thought that a theme needed to be a whole sentence. That sounds
like a silly rule to me. In my opinion, teaching thematically simply
means that all aspects of the curriculum (as is possible) are tied
together with a major thread in order to create deeper meaning and
understanding.
Can you expand on what it is that you want to do?

Beverlee,
If there is a group that can help me push my thinking, this is it. I'm
pondering your suggestion that sentences are needed to describe
themes. That is an interesting idea. Does the sentence narrow the
concept, or does it broaden it?
