After we have gone over the poetic features of Ballad of Birmingham and learned to annotate, you will be doing the same thing to a song of your choice (please find one that is not explicit, thank you).

You can use this site here to find the lyrics to your chosen song or any other you are familiar with.

At home classroom instructions Monday M-Z Tuesday A-L

  • Please reread the Ballad of Birmingham and see if you can’t find those poetic devices we talked about in class Monday/Tuesday.
  • In preparation for our final project, I also want to think about places you are most comfortable in. Take a photo for class if you can (using a phone is fine). Having more than one place is better than just one.
  • If you have not added to all the Jamboards from Monday/Tuesday’s class, please make sure you have that aswell.
  • No Red Ink

Health & Career Education Online Class

Hi everyone, here is the schedule for today’s online class:

Click here to join the meeting

HCE-open up either the pdf or word doc above. I will share my screen and display it while I explain.

1) Look at the four visuals on pages 3-6 and try to decipher their meaning of each in regard to the above themes of RESPECT, COLLABORATION or INCLUSIVITY.

  1. i) “Assimilation vs. Inclusivity” created by unknown artist
    ii) “Birds on a Wire,” created by Banksy
    iii)    “The Arrival: The New Country,” created by Sean Tam
    iv)      “It’s a Bird,” created by Christian Cooper

 

2) Think, pair, and share activity to unpack the meaning of the visuals in small groups-I will put you in breakout rooms, or you can use your partner channel.

3) Select one of the visuals from above, and show your understanding of the intended message of either RESPECT, COLLABORATION or INCLUSIVITY in written form based on the visual.

4) You may either write a narrative, write an explanatory paragraph, create a visual, Venn diagram, infograph, etc. to show your deeper understanding of the image.

5) Save the photo from the option that you are basing your piece on.

5) Post both your response and the photo you based it on, to your Edublog:
