  2. Symbols Make sure that your symbols are more than just representations of things you like to do or things you enjoy. For example, imagine that you decide you want to come up with a symbol for sports. The following example would be INCORRECT. Ex. I chose a football to represent how much I love playing and watching football.

  3. Symbols continued Instead, you must think about what the specific category MEANS TO YOU. So instead of simply bringing in a football to represent that you like watching and playing football, you need to consider what football means to you as a person. The following is a CORRECT example. Here the student brings in a flower to represent football, explaining that playing and watching football gives him peace. Ex.

  8. Symbol help • Before coming up with symbols, jot down what each category means to you individually. • Ex. Family • Support, protection, unity, sticking together, strength, help • Ex. Sports • Courage, pride, release, relief, peace, stress relief, time management, commitment, honor, focus • Once you do this it will be easier to come up with abstract symbols to represent these categories.
