Imagine yourself as anything other who you are—anything other than a human. You could be an object (your car, your baby’s blanket, the big live oak in your back yard) or you could be an animal (the beloved and spoiled household pet). You can include a photo or image if you would like, but you do not have to do so. Write about your world as you imagine it, and include details about what your life is like.

THEN, once you have posted your reply, respond to TWO classmates’ posts. Tell them what you enjoyed and/or related to in their introductions. Be specific and thoughtful. Your response should be more than “good job.” Use this as an opportunity to get to know each other. IMPORTANT: FINALLY, to receive full credit for the discussion, respond to the classmates who have posted a reply to your post.

What does the world look like from your point of view?

Describe where you are and the colors, shapes, and interesting views you can see. Imagine what you would be able to smell, hear, and/or taste and describe those things.

How do you relate to the people, creatures, or objects around you?

Describe your emotions. What does it feel like to be you?
