themes

At first, I thought theme was time and place in a story, but I learned that this was wrong. Actually, theme is composition, essay, motive, subject, text, and thesis. Some themes are universal, which means that they are found in almost every story, play, movie, etc. Themes are can be found in all genres of literature; the five main genres of literature are drama, mystery, fiction, non-fiction, and poetry. Since I now understand theme, I can find the theme of my favorite movie. My favorite movie is Pearl Harbor .The theme of this movie is a war is going on and it is important that the us protects themselves from the enemy. On my theme pretest, I was at grade-level. On my post test, I hope that I will be above grade-level.
