Tag: inspiration
Just for fun…heed the wisdom of ‘the stars’.
Teachers:
Print this out and post it on a bulletin board.
Use it as a prompt for a story.
— Is the character a Scorpio? Does she have to be?
— Did she simply scoff at the message, only to have events convince her otherwise?
— What were those events?
Use it as a springboard for a class discussion.
— What does inspiration feel like to you?
— What other events or actions might spur this sensation?
Note: It would be interesting to see if any of your students woke up with a similar message bouncing around in their heads.
