Me, Myself, and My Initials

In this lesson that was taught to us by our classmates we were asked to bring pictures or adds that represented us and what we liked. We took two different pieces of paper and on one of them we drew our initials on it anyway we wanted, cut them out, and traced them on the other piece of paper. Then we took the adds and pictures we gathered and placed them where our initials were traced. Once we had them all glued on, we then placed the paper with our initials cut out on top. This allows the pictures we glued on to show through. I found it difficult because I traced my letters all of the way to the edge of the paper and it was challenging trying to figure out how to put all of the pieces back together. It was almost like a puzzle. As an extension to this project I would incorporate it with an English lesson as well by having the students write about themselves and what makes them unique. Students enjoy lessons like this because it has their name on it and its something really personal.
