ILLUSTRATING WORDS

By groups you will receive a list where you will find 5 words from this list:
Future
Belligerent
Tactics
Fixantly
Learning
Indignantly
Admission
Teaching
Concrete
Deep
Blatant
Wide
Dismissively
Stangnant
Sucess
The group must illustrate those concepts. They could use their own drawings (hadmade or digital), pictures from the Internet (always refering the source), or even pictures from other parts. Illustrations could include messages, BUT those messages cannot include definitions or the word itself. (20’ for completing)
After completing the collection, each group will interchange the collection with other group (no words, only illustrations) (5’).
The group will choose a word for each image and will make its own list of words and images and will explain briefly, why they think this concept is well represented with this picture. (15’ for complete it)
Finally, the group will give back the list and images to the original group and we will analyse in the big group what are the results of the "experiment". (20’)
After the class, each group must include the list of concepts and illustrations they have created in their blog, and will try to include the reflections about the process. They will try to think in things like:
- Have you had any problem illustrating the concepts?
- How it is easier to know what is the concept, with a drawing? Or with a picture?
- Messages in illustrations help to clarify the concept?
- Why do you think the other group have had problems to guess the Word?
