7th Grade: Fingerprint Identities

 For this project the students and I first talked about how our fingerprints are part of our identity, which is why we use fingerprints for things such as crime scenes. We also talked about combining the identity of our fingerprints with things about us.
The students first studied their fingerprints and drew them. We then water colored them and created a list of twenty things about themselves. Seventh grade then wrote the things about them in their fingerprints and went over it in Sharpie. I encouraged students to add small images or change the sizing of their writing to make it more interesting.
