Once we have gone through the project guidelines, you will use the following resources to begin working on your Butterfly Project:

• Find your assigned poem here:
  • http://www.nonduality.com/terezin.htm
    • If you want to read more about Terezin to help you begin your butterfly, visit this link:
  • https://www.ushmm.org/research/publications/academic-publications/full-list-of-academic-publications/i-never-saw-another-butterfly-childrens-drawings-and-poems-from-terezin
• Link to PowerPoint:   Terezin PowerPoint

Next…

• Begin reading and analyzing your poem; please thoughtfully respond to all poem analysis questions!
• Brainstorm what your butterfly is going to look like.  The shape?  The colors?  Pictures?  Words?  Remember, it must represent your poem and your poet!
• Start making your butterfly; neatness, creativity, and effort are required!
• Reflect upon your understanding of the poem and the creation of your butterfly as you write your journal response.

I have compiled a collection of just several of the many, many pictures rescued from Terezin, drawn by the youngest prisoners of the camp.  You can view the pictures here:
