Our Digital Media Lives

As part of our class discussions around digital footprints, we used an activity from CommonSense Media that has students thinking of a comparison/simile for the way they use digital media. I like it because it allows us to talk about figurative language, and opens up some interesting discussions around themes of responses.

First, I will share the one that I created.

And here are some student responses.

media life similes (5)
media life similes (4)

What’s your media life like?

Peace (in the simile),
Kevin
