Topics vs. Themes:

Home, family, clothes..... = topics (ingredients...not a meal in and of itself) grammar and vocab=crackers and water

seasoning=games, activities, candy, info gap, song

Themes:
negotiation of meaning=makes them think and they have to talk about what it really means. Circumlocution=beating around the bush loquatious=talkative =an actual meal: 1. Protein: conceptual, cultural, social problems (hunger, abuse, poverty, charity, racism, technological advances. ...anything you see in the news) You give them something to talk about. 2. Veggies:grammar 3. Carbs: opportunity to communicate about MEANINGFUL things.
