From the above objects, choose ONE to explore more fully via the questions below:
- List at least five thematic keyword that you connect to this object:
- Describe one of these ideas in further detail
- Describe how it illustrates the thinking and world of the people who created it.
- Discuss it in relation to an idea you were working with in relation to a course text, and consider ways the object may give further insight into an issue in a text. What part of the text? How does it connect/add information and ideas?
- Imagine yourself as a user of the object. How are you using it? What are you thinking about as you use it?
- Describe how it illustrates, or differs from, your thinking and your world, and the things with which you surround yourself
Reflect on what you've written and shape your thoughts into two pages of your reflections. Submit the worksheet as well-you can take a picture. This is not a research project. Info from the Museum's notes may be included with proper citation. Any outside info should comprise only a few sentences at most. Use the object like a text that you're imaginatively exploring.
