Discussion topics

  • (00:00) Chapter 1, Activity 1: Take five minutes and freewrite about images from one of the four seasons.  We write in order to figure out what we think about things and to generate ideas about things.
  • (08:50) Chapter 1, Activity 2: Describe an image that is important to you. Discuss and identify an image that’s important to your class. What kind of image did you choose?  Could they be called symbols?  Why or why not?  If they are symbols, what multiple meanings do you images represent?
