This is my footprint introduction. For this project, we had to outline our foot and fill it with symbols and things that represent us. We were required to use at least 3 different kinds of media in this project. Here are what my symbols represent:
Apple- Future Teacher; I used nail polish to color it because I enjoy makeup.
Grass, Tree, Sun, and Cow- I enjoy the outdoors and my family owns a cattle ranch and farm.
Paw Print- I like animals and I have 4 pets.
Camera- I enjoy photography.
Flower- I enjoy flowers and gardening.
Book- I love to read.
Stars- I like to stargaze and I enjoy watching movies.
Yarn- I used two different "stitches" around the outside to represent sewing and cross stitching, which I enjoy doing.
Extension Activity: Once students create their own footprint, they can write a short paragraph describing each of the symbols/elements they included. Then, they could present their footprints to their classmates and answer questions from their classmates about the symbols/elements they included. This would include both a writing and a speaking/presenting component.
This is a picture of my footprint.
