Reflection on Exhibition Circumstances: Do this survey in Google Classroom to let me know where you are with things. 


Creative Response Mini-Project: “The Creation” by Eduardo Galeano


  1. Read together out loud once. Read to yourself silently at least once more. Maybe many time more. Consider its deepest mysteries. If you are studying Spanish, spend some time in the piece in its original language. Think about how translation is a deeply intertextual act. 

  2. Illustrate your interpretation of “The Creation” with art OR express your response in creative writing

    • If you do art, consider how you might incorporate some words into it. If doing writing, consider how you might illuminate it with artistic flair. 

  3. As you work on your art, discuss with the humans around you: What is the piece trying to express? What meaning do you find?

  4. “Exhibit” your creative response on the back board when finished!
