Culture Bag part II

Good Afternoon.  Get that digital culture bag opened from last class.  Spend the first 30 minutes of class working on it.  

Remember our definition of Culture: attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterize you.

Your image should be a SYMBOL (a thing that represents or stands for something else or abstract).  Last class many of you were doing a great job thinking up symbols to represent parts of your culture.  For instance, consider the slides below.  

"The image of the Lego bricks symbolizes me because I am a very creative person. There is nothing more creative than a pile of LEGO bricks. You can literally create anything you want to if you have enough of them, and a large imagination. I am the kind of person who sees the creative possibility in everything."

"The image of the melting clock symbolizes me because I am a very focused person. Often times I can get so intensely focused on a task that I completely lose track of my surroundings and time."

Last reminder: be careful not to let your slides become "show-and-tell."  This is a thinking assignment.  You should really think deeply about the images and words you choose.  If in doubt, call me over to look at your slide.
