Teach "Oriental" in your ENG107 course.
"Brainstorming and Critical Thinking" created by Shahzadi Laibah Burq.
This lesson plan incorporates translations of the English poem “Oriental” to have multilingual students immerse deeply in the topic of identity and encourage them to critically reflect upon their experiences of identity negotiations, representations, and belongingness. The class begins with students composing a Haiku poem in their native language to introduce themselves leading into a reflective discussion on the ideas represented in the poem “Oriental”. Moving forward, students are encouraged to brainstorm their ideas and create a mind map using any language, symbols, signs, illustrations, voice recording, video recording etc. (multimodal, multisemiotic, multi linguistic approach).
