Graffiti Directions
• Around the room, you will see a picture next to each piece of paper.
• Each group will have 3 matching color markers.
• You should have a quiet conversation about each picture with your group
members. Then do the following:
– 1. Your group must write down one educated question.
• The question should be at least one sentence!
– 2. Your group must write one well-thought out response to a previous
question OR one statement about the picture.
• The response or statement should be at least one sentence!
• You will have 25 minutes to walk around the room. If we have time at the
end of class, we will discuss what you write on each piece of paper.
Questions Before Activity
Each response should be at least two sentences:
1. Define (in your own words) DESTINY.
– The first sentence should be your definition. Your definition cannot
contain the word “destiny”!
– The second sentence should use the word “destiny” in another way.
2. How do you think settlers in the United States viewed land?
To whom did it belong? How could you tell?
3. How do you think settlers treated Native Americans they
came into contact with? How can you tell?
• You may not know an exact answer. Think about past events in U.S. History
and use what you have learned in this class to answer.
