Illustrated Quotes
We are getting to know one another by carefully selecting quotes that show something important about who we are.
Once we have selected a quote we will be writing to show what our quotes mean to us and explain what they show about who we are.

- thoughts about font size, colour, and shape
- thoughts about images
- individual interpretations of meaning

Students made a first draft of their illustrated quote and we examined them by identifying a star and a stair for our work. We phrased these by using what we learned about using symbolic Font, Colour and Images.
Students sorted their specific meaningful feedback using an interactive Google Drawing or Slips of paper and a target place mat.
The most specific feedback is moved to the center of the target and the least specific to the outer ring.
See image below:
We played musical feedback to improve the quality of our work. Students self assessed their Quotation Bumper Stickers with the rubric below:
I'm really looking forward to seeing all of our hard work pay off!! : )
