Put a modern technological twist to this and allow students to use technology.
By using a web application called Popplet, students will be capable of creatively and independently creating a welcome sign. This application allows the students to print in large sizes, (bigger than A4) and allows them to focus on the welcoming words not just the art element.
Thus further develops the students skills with technology and new forms of creating art with mind maps.
If too hard to do individually, allow students to work in pairs and do a joint art work.
For those who finish early, allow them to colour code the printed work, and draw pictures corresponding to the words and countries the words come from.
Lesson Purpose:
Introduces students to the concept of welcoming people, from various backgrounds. Follows the introduction into baptism and the goal of the unit as Jesus who welcomes loves and includes all people.
Students can upload their mind map to the web site, and will have a gallery to view each others work.
