ACTIVITIES:
1. Discuss the fad of wearing T-shirts with the students. Mention that we wear T-shirts
that tell a lot about ourselves. Our shirts sometimes feature our favorite heroes,
characters, teams, singers, slogans, or products. T-shirts can depict or describe
anything that may tell about our personalities, likes and dislikes, etc.
2. Some T-shirts have printed messages on them. Display several current T-shirts with
printed logos/messages. These messages can make a statement to us or about us.
Sometimes you can find part of the message on the front of the shirt and the rest on
the back. (Show examples.)
3. Give each student a copy of the front and back T-shirt handouts and markers. Tell
them they are to design a T-shirt that tells about features or characteristics, which
they have.
