The Thematic Essay 4/25/07

REVIEW OF YESTERDAY 

Yesterday we looked at the definitions at the top of the THEMATIC ESSAY.  These should be looked at with the task, as they will define words that are found there.  We also looked at the directions and translated the language there (introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion) into a tree map for planning purposes.

We also looked at a graphic organizer from Oswego High School and saw that it does the same thing, only flipped in a different direction.

 

TODAY

So today we look at the theme.

Here is a text version for Kurzweil:

Actions taken by the United States Government have often been influenced by geographic factors.  Some of these factors include location, climate, natural resources, and physical features.

Let’s analyze the theme.  What is the thinking involved and what are the words in the theme that lead us there?

Hang for a minute and wait for me to guide you throught the comment process.
