Finish reading the novel.
Journal 10: As you read mark lines or passages that suggest an aspect of a theme. Choose 4 of the passages and use what you know of the text to write four theme statements.
Advice: Themes statements typically fall into two categories. Advice on how to live life or and observation about life.
Ex: the last sentence in last night's passage describes Janie not speaking. As I've noticed Hurston refers to silence and speaking throughout the text, I should be able to make a theme statement from it. To help I usually ask how, why or when questions to develop the theme statement.
Reminder: you also need to start working on your commentary passage.
HW: Read your passage and summarize it. Afterwords, read one more time and mark stylistic elements that stand out immediately. You don't need to analyze or identify the context tonight.
