Lexicon Collages




In this lesson we were to pick four vocabulary words and then write the definition on the back of it. We were told to keep our favorite and give the other three to classmates. After we painted then each person would add their own personal touch as to what they felt like when they saw the vocabulary word that was on the back. My four words were: obnoxious, aftermath, underground and handsome. After everyone was done decorating or designing the card that I had given them, they then handed them back to the original person. I really enjoyed getting back my original collages because I liked to see what everyone else's opinion of the vocabulary word that was on the back of each collage.
Obnoxious: something that stands out from something else; makes a scene.
Aftermath: what is left of everything after a disaster has hit the area.
Underground: the area beneath the surface.
Handsome: someone or something that is attractive.
