Foot Print Introductions

For this project, students drew an outline of their foot on construction paper.  Students then used different mediums such as magazines, markers, and found objects to show their individual interests and life in order to introduce themselves to the class. 

On my footprint, I included some of my favorite things such as dogs, flowers, pizza, and fall.  I chose a number 5 because there are five people in my immediate family. There is a music note because I love to sing, even though I am not very good!  "The r-word hurts" represents my Special Education degree.

As an extension to this activity, students could partner up with someone they do not know and exchange footprints.  They could then write a few paragraphs about the person's interests and life based on the pictures and objects from their footprint.  They could then discuss the prints with their partner and introduce them to the class.
