For Monday, November 6th-

You will determine the THEME of Hidden Figures. 

1. Consider of one of the following topics that you feels applies to Hidden Figures. 
2. Ask what you feel that the author is saying about this topic in this book.
3. Expand this idea into a statement of what you feel the author is saying about life.

Theme is not the topic... it is what the author is saying universally about the topic. Theme should be applicable to multiple texts.. not just the one.

Determining Literary Theme

Once you have determined the theme of the book, you will need to make a list of textual evidence from the first six chapters of Hidden Figures to support the theme.
