Monday, September 24th

Today we begin our second text in study of THEME: Good Will Hunting. We will be using this film to look at the issues of IDENTITY, DECISIONS, and REDEMPTION.

Remember... these are only the issues within a text. They are what are universal and seen in different texts. It is what you argue the author is saying about these issues when it becomes a THEME.

1. You already have textual evidence of these issues in The Other Wes Moore.  You will now be gathering textual evidence of these three issues in Good Will Hunting.  This evidence will go on the first page of notes in the packet you are getting in class.

2. You will be completing some questions that go along with the film that will help you pick up on some significant plot elements, which can also tie into building a theme.

You will NOT do questions: 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 18, 30, 35, 36, 38.

You will turn in this packet with your final THEME project (announced after the film).
