Grand Ideas from Within
A Language Enhancing Creative Imagery Activity
LESSONS
Each lesson consists of five audio-imagery activities which guide participants in creating mental images or a series of imagined events in order to reflect on their situations, emotions, and/or ideas. The participants are then encouraged by the classroom teacher to express his/her reflections through writing or art.
Participants progress at the speed they choose. Understanding that "the process is as important as the finished product" is a key concept. This process of interpretation of sensory input is perception. Participants classify their world through their five senses, and attach language concepts to their perceptions.
