Using #StarWars as an example, Moby Wan and the gang explain how authors use story elements like plot and characterization to develop a theme: https://brnpop.co/2VlswiR

Teach your students to think like writers do! In this language arts movie on theme, Tim and Moby discuss the universal ideas that hide within all good tales. Kids will discover just what motifs are, and how they use symbols to reinforce the message an author is trying to deliver! Then they’ll pick up details on the importance of plot, setting, dialogue, and characterization in how we understand the world of a story.

Meanwhile, Moby Wan will walk you through a place far, far away to reveal how themes give stories a deeper and universal meaning. So if you want your students to learn what writers are really saying, press play and get ready for a little light motif!
