Day 10 - Cartooning

Now that you have a topic, the next step is to jog your memory of the event. You need to remember as much as possible about this life experience. Because our brain thinks in pictures, it is sometimes easier to draw what we remember.

1. Using note cards, you are going to draw pictures (at least 5) of your event. You are not being graded on artistic ability but on the amount of detail that you add to your pictures. The more detail you can add now, the easier it will be to put those details into words.
2. When you are finished drawing, put the note cards in chronological order (remember that vocab word? See Day 5). This should look like the frames of a cartoon when assembled.

3. Post here on the blog a summary statement on the cartoon experience, what did you discover about yourself as a learner?
