Whose is that Coat of Arms?


A Coat of Arms is usually a design on a shield that stands for you family, school or business.  When you make your own shield you can create your own personal Coat of Arms.

Once everyone has finished have a display of the coats of arms.

See if you can work out who each one belongs too.

The "Me" Bag


Equipment:

  • Old magazines
  • Scissors,
  • Glue,
  • Paper,
  • Bags (one per person).
Method
  1. Each person is given a paper bag.
  2. Look through magazines and cut out pictures that show the YOU that everyone else sees.
    1. Stick those pictures on the outside of your paper bag.
  3. Cut out pictures that show the you that you know - your feelings, ambitions, hopes, etc. 
    1. Place these pictures inside your paper bag.
  4. In pairs or threes, tell each other about your bags - you choose whether or not you'd like to share the pictures inside your bag.


  • Some of the things you might choose to talk about are:
    • Why did you choose the pictures on and in your bag?
    • Are the pictures on the inside of your bags similar to the ones on the utside?
      • Why?
      • Why not?
      • How?
    • Are many of our true feelings and hopes kept inside?
    • Do we show a different picture of ourselves to others?
      • Only to certain people?
