Theme

At first, I thought theme was just a moral, but I learned that this was wrong. Actually, theme isthe authors message about life. Some themes are universal, which means that theyare to thought about in more than one way. Themes are can be found in all genres of literature; the five main genres of literature are poetry, biography, mystery, fantasy, and drama. Since I now understand theme, I can find the theme of my favorite movie. My favorite movie is Forest Gump. The theme of this movie is "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your going to get until it happens." On my theme pretest, I was below grade-level. On my posttest, I hope that I will be at least above grade-level.
