From GADOE Teacher Guidance Document: Sample Performance-based/Standards-based Task(s):

ELAGSE4RL2: Present students with several short texts from multiple genres that have a thematic connection (for example, “You can’t judge by appearances,” or “leaving home”). Provide them with effective strategies for determining theme. Students may work in small groups to compare their results with one another and discuss differences of opinion. Themes are often associated with abstract nouns (justice, peace, friendship); an extension activity could include making a chart of such words for the classroom.
