What connections have you made between your daily life and culture? What details can you share about your culture that are part of your daily life?
What experiences have influenced the person you are today?
What words will you use to describe yourself to others? What examples can you give to support your word choices?
Who has had an impact on you? In what ways?
What stories do you feel comfortable sharing about yourself, your family and your experiences? Why are those stories important to you?
What images will you include to represent you to others or to help tell your personal story?
What questions can you ask others to help them to share their stories with you?
***When an infographic is well done, the visuals provide extra details and enhance the overall message shared
***The infographic can be done digitally or be hand drawn, but MUST be 11X17 in size. I can supply paper if you are working by hand and can print your digital infographics if they are complete the day before they are due.
