Reflection to Week 2
I really enjoyed the time we got in class to decorate our Writer's Notebooks. I love scrap-booking and being creative, and I was so glad that we were able to express our creativity on the covers of our notebooks. It was a nice way for us to really think about how we wanted to express ourselves through our writing. While the pictures I used didn't necessarily represent my hobbies or interests, I was really happy with some of the word choices I used to decorate my cover, such as "Home," "Dream," and "Discover." It was my birthday yesterday, so I included a word cut out that I found that said, "New Year, New You." I think the words described who I am, and the pictures just added a nice touch to the cover. Going off of the quote at the bottom of the 2nd page in the Agenda packet, ("How might I use these images to inspire and inform my writing?") I would say that the words and pictures that I used describe what makes me happy and excited, so hopefully the entries in my writer's notebook will be about happy memories and experiences.

Abby-
ReplyDeleteI totally agree! I absolutely love scrapbooking and I thought this was a great way to describe some of what we like and about ourselves through pictures!!! And by the way-happy birthday! Love the new year-new you!
Abby, I also really enjoyed decorating our notebooks. It was somewhat difficult for me to find pictures from the magazines that represented myself, but like you, I also chose to cut out words that I liked and thought had some symbolism towards myself!
