SYMBOL POSTER GROUP PROJECT
HELLO STUDENTS!
ON TUESDAY MAY 1 you will have your symbol poster group projects due. Work with your group should be mostly done out of class. Arrange this wisely and use the school resources.
THE SYMBOLS (AND COMMUNITIES) : Rubber hose (law), stockings (health), diamonds (business), seeds (arts).
The project should be creative! On a posterboard of any size track how the symbol changes and what the symbol represents in the play. You should have two or more images (pictures) and two or more quotes from the play as well as a sentence describing how the symbol changes throughout the play
Time-saving tip: Divide the labor amongst your group members and then glue it all together at the end. Be ready to present it as a group!
