Hey All,
I look forward to seeing my English 102 student artisitc responses on Monday, yet I had a preview in class today.
The assignment was to respond to Sherman Alexie's work and/or the information and experiences they've had with this class from their perspective and if they did incorporate symbols and ideas from Native American communities they needed to explain why. They also had to post one page reflections on what their work represents to them as their response, what creating it was like and so forth. My friend and colleague Debora was really clear on saying we need to do it from where we stand and not try to just imitate others.
There was quite a range from drawings, cartoons, scenes created by students, to objects they made. Debora's Painting class is finishing a mural and her Drama students have written and acted their own scenes as their response. Their work will be cool to see. Some of them will be performing at tonight's opem mic and we are really excited to see what the NWIC students and Tulalip community members have created!!!
So, would anyone reading this like to share what they've created or any other feedback about the Tulalip Reads for Unity overall?
