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?
