Students in grades 6-8 are exploring how individuals can express their identity using a specific playing card. They are examining the function of playing cards and how each card can reveal or hide certain characteristics of an individual player. Students were asked to select a card that they identify with based on the cards meaning and their relationship to that meaning or it’s significance. For example: Are you a Queen, King, Jack, Joker, or Ace? This objective once again is
a part of our ongoing theme of identity.
