LI: To create another word art which describes the proverb I have created.
The above word art is the fourth Step it up activity for this week of the Summer Learning Journey that I have completed today. For this activity we were challenged to create another word cloud which describes a well known proverb. I was inspired by the example given in the introduction slides, as it had a very powerful meaning behind it. The proverb was "The sun sets but rises again", this might sound short but the meaning is impressive. The sunset indicates the end of the day creating darkness which says to forget about the mistakes you have done and learn a lesson from it. After the sunset comes the sunrise, which indicates a new start saying that life goes on.
The proverb I have chosen for this activity is "Dig the well before you're thirsty" which says that, a person should be well prepared and not wait until the end to do something. I have also created a word cloud which describes the saying in key words. The words that I have included are prepare, management, ready, challenge, overcome, solution, thinking, strategy, change, preparation, success, emergency, opportunity, plan, obstacle and problem solving. This time, I made sure that I use more words as compared to the previous challenge because it would be more helpful for explain the topic. I loved completing this task as I improved in some points like arranging the words, color combination and vocabulary. I am excited to complete other tasks of the Summer Learning Journey.
Good afternoon Sakshi
ReplyDeleteThis and you pervious word art posts are great.
Visually they really pop out at you. This one with " Prepare" in bold really catches the readers eye and makes them think ... "Prepare for what??" .
I love the thinking behind the word art. The saying about the "well" is very true and easy to understand.
I wonder with the pandemic events of 2020 that this holds true. Were we prepared?
Keep up the postings. I hope you are having fun doing these challenges. There is certainly lots of variety this year in the SLJ.
regards
Kia ora Sakshi
ReplyDeleteIt’s Shannon again, from the Summer Learning Journey.
Ka pai on completing the second part of this activity. I was really impressed how you incorporated more words to make your proverb easier to explain. The colours you have used make the word art very easy to read. How cool to read that you are enjoying your learning and maybe this could be something you share with your classmates when you go back to school.
Do you think proverbs are still relevant today? We don’t seem to make as much use of them these days so how do you think we could change this in our learning?
Happy blogging Sakshi
