Identity Bags and Identity Maps

This week we have been working on identity bags and identity maps. I think they are both very fun and really interesting. In the identity bags every person gets to bring in 5 – 8 things that are part of their identity. We share them with the rest of the class and we learn a lot about others from them. The identity maps. In the identity maps we make some kind of design with a lot of shapes and in each shape we write one thing about our identity. We can do whatever we want as long as we have room to write in them.

 

In the identity bags I learned that I like donuts a lot. I learned this because I brought in a giant donut. (It’s a pillow) I learned so much about my classmates too. About their interests and siblings, friends, etc.  In the identity maps I learned that I have a lot of great ideas. I used very creative shapes and drawings to write. I learned a lot about my classmates from what they wrote too.
