Teaching Symbolism with "I Spy" Pages
My class wraps up our reading curriculum by discussing theme and symbolism in novels. To add some STEAM to our reading curriculum, students were given some options for how to show their understanding of symbols in their novels. One option is the "I Spy" page. Students must find at least 7 important symbols from their novel to hide in an image full of objects. Each included symbol must also include a 2-3 sentence explanation for the item's importance and connection to the plot and theme of the novel. Students are choosing a variety of ways to construct their "I Spy" page using the Chromebook technology, their art skills, and Google apps. Check out the example below!
