Vague ELA Instructional Theme: What’d they do, and how and why’d they do it?
Also to consider: Who is “they”? Who are they talking to, and why? What seems to be their purpose?
How do you know? Do they seem to be successful in achieving their purpose? What lets you know this?
What might you have done differently if you were the writer? Can you trust the writer and their ideas?
How do you know? Are some of their ideas less or more important than others? Is there a difference
between what they seem to consider their purpose, and what they actually end up achieving? What is
obvious about their message or its delivery? What is subtle? What can you infer about the audience from
the tone? How does the structure contribute to, or distract from, their overall purpose? What does the
diction allow you to infer about the audience? How might it affect the tone/theme/audience if the
diction/structure/purpose were revised in such and such ways? (R.A.F.T.)
