“Brian’s Social Media”
In this activity, students will demonstrate their understanding of Brian’s perspective and of the importance of setting in Brian’s Winter by creating social-media-style posts from Brian’s perspective.
Imagine that Brian has a smartphone with him during his time in the wilderness and that he is taking pictures of this setting to post when he is finally somewhere with a cell signal. When he returns home, what are three scenes he might share on social media? How might he caption these scenes to convey why they are significant to him? In this activity, you will create three social-media-style posts from Brian’s perspective.
