Description

Symbolism can be one of the most difficult elements of literature to teach, but this classroom-tested teaching pack provides an interesting and engaging way to present and/or practice symbolism to your students. In this low-prep lesson, you'll have everything you need to teach, practice, and test this concept with any literary text or poem.

Student Experience: Students take notes about the concept of symbolism, take a look at examples from literature, and then practice their understanding by participating in a gallery walk with beautiful photography rich with symbolism. It's interactive, meaningful, and fun!

Included:

  • Lesson with modern video links to immediately engage students and a video tutorial (via youtube); text-based option suggested, editable
  • 10 original full-color images for interactive Gallery Walk
  • Sketch notes for note taking during the lecture
  • Graphic organizer for use with any text after the lecture ends
