English 9

Welcome back. I hope you all had a great Spring Break. Here is your next project. Please ask if you have questions, otherwise, have fun and tap into those creative juices.


Who am I?

For this project, you will be creating a representation of YOU. In order to do so, one must first gain a deep understanding as to who you really are, or, more importantly, who you want to be.

In order to do this, you need to answer the following questions to get an idea of who you really are (You may have to do some research before you answer the questions):


The basics:

What is you full name?

Do you have a nickname?

Describe your family. Who do you live with? Include pets, animals, that uncle who lives in the basement, etc.

Where have you lived in your life?

Who has influenced you? You can include positive and negative influences.

Favourite colour?

Favourite foods?

Favourite band?

Favourite song?

Favourite sports team?

Favourite activities (hiking, fishing, etc.)

Favourite place to visit (The bug zoo)?

Are you a lone wolf or a social butterfly?

Do you have a favourite artist or work of art? If not, I suggest the group of seven as a starting point.

Do you have a Growth mindset?

Do you suffer from Cognitive dissonance?

How do You see You?

How do Others see You?

How do YOU want the world to see you?

What do you want to be doing in 1year, 5years, 10 years, 20 years.

What masks do you wear? In other words, do you take on different personalities in different circumstances?

Do you have a brand? What does it look like? What would your symbol look like? Think Nike swoosh.
Find a quote or slogan that has meaning for you.

Is there anything I missed? Include it here.


Now that you have developed a profile, I would like you to pick a method of representing yourself. Poster, painting, power point, Prezi, Story/essay, picture story, short film, song, scene, photograph, sculpture, caricature, other, etc.

You representation MUST include the following details:

1.    Your brand. Can be in the form of a symbol, but must have a connection to your profile in some way
2.    At least five images. Again, there must be a connection to your profile.
3.    Your quote or slogan
4.    Three influences (facebook, friends, etc.)

You will have three classes to research, gather information, and create your representation. Be sure to use class time wisely.
