🕯️ Story Circle Sketch Thumbnails

Effective Communication Critical Thinking & Problem Solving VA:Cr2.3 DA:Cr2.1.III.b VA:Pr6.1.IIIa Submission Required

Students share a loved one’s memory in small groups and take story-circle notes on identity, values, objects, colors, and meaningful moments. They then swap ideas with a partner and create 3 rapid altar thumbnails in their sketchbook, each showing a different arrangement of portrait, symbols, family tree elements, and objects. Before closing, students post one thumbnail for quick peer response and note one idea they may carry into the next phase.
