We've been discussing personality and character traits with my private students when she mentioned that she is an introvert. The other day I stumbled across this witty drawing of Introvert's Heart by Gemma Correll.
Next lesson I showed it to my students and we discussed whether she would agree with this depiction. Along the way, we revised geographical names as well as more advanced words connected to personality (e.g. recluse, hermit). For homework, I asked my students to draw the map of HER heart and try to express her vision of herself. And this is what she made!
With the rock-rock-rock music coast, river of waiting till the hiatus ends and friendzone cape :P
I like it when the inspiration for my classes is instant like that. Sometimes I spend hours looking for a video or a poster going through many variants before I choose. And it's not even a matter of my time (although it is pretty priceless), but a feeling of bringing something really current and relevant to the class. So, I guess, I'll just keep my eyes and ears wide open this year in the hope of finding a perfect lesson material.
