My Footprint




My footprint features my favorite theme: the beach. It represents my many trips to Oceanside, California, to visit my boyfriend while he was stationed at Camp Pendleton in the Marine Corps. I included a palm tree and several hibiscus flowers, my favorite tree and flower, respectively. I added my most recent hobby, a boogie board. The ferris wheel represents my hometown, Huron, South Dakota, home of the South Dakota State Fair. Finally, Semper Fi means "Always Faithful" in Latin; it is the Marine motto and my wink and nod to my boyfriend, Adam. I created this using oil pastel, glitter, colored pencil, and markers. This would be a wonderful activity to use as an ice breaker on the first day of school, as well as to gain ideas on what your students will enjoy as activities and to get to know them a little better.
