“iWrite: Symbols 11/19 or 11/20.”
For today’s iWrite look at the
symbols below. Choose one symbol, draw it in your composition book, and
write about
it. What does it represent? Does it represent something different to
different groups of people? Have you found any symbols in the books
you're reading?
Definition of symbol from M-W.com: something that
stands for or suggests something else by reason of relationship, association,
convention, or accidental resemblance; especially: a visible sign of something
invisible. For example, the lion is a symbol of courage.
