DESCRIPTION

Interested in helping students become better readers, writers, and criticial thinkers? We need to “play with media” to become more effective communicators and improve our media literacy skills as both learners and citizens. As you learn to play with digital text, images, audio and video, you will communicate more creatively and flexibly with a wider variety of options. Author and educator Wesley Fryer will inspire and empower you, as a creative person, to expand your personal senses of digital literacy and digital agency as a multimedia communicator! Learn more, order Wesley’s eBook, and access session resources on www.playingwithmedia.com.

The Fire

There was a fire ban that yearBut the carless campers left

Leaving smoldering remains behindThe fire that ate the forest

Wind whispered wordlessly in the treesThe fire was given new lifeLike a new small heartbeatThe fire that ate the forest

Friday, November 11, 11

Page 31: Improving Reading, Writing & Critical Thinking Skills with Media

...continued...

The fire lit the dry grassIt was gathering in strength

Like a lion preparing to strikeThe fire that ate the forest

The fire now reached the treesIt was a wild beast let free

Grey smoke billowed up to the skyThe fire that ate the forest
