Our 6th grade ELA students became Theme Detectives! 🔎
As part of our study through the curriculum text, students participated in a gallery walk to review text evidence, evaluate possible themes, and determine which theme was best supported by the story. Students collaborated, discussed their thinking, and used evidence to explain how the characters’ experiences developed the author’s message about life.
We are building strong readers who can support their ideas with evidence! 💙📖
