FFGA has created a special interactive presentation of the original Dreampad questions used to inspire classroom poetry. Each question is animated with photographic imagery and leads to a guided activity that children can complete on their own.
The Imagine... questions are also reproduced below for those who have a lower-bandwidth Internet connection.
Imagine... presentation (Flash 4 plug-in required)
IMAGINE...
Imagine a future you would like to be in. What you give voice to, will be. Imagine anything and everything is possible. Remember to consider the purpose and meaning of your thoughts before you speak them. What is created? What does it feel like?
Imagine looking into the eyes of your favorite animal. You can experience any thing that animal has known and experienced. Imagine it can help you communicate with other animals and plants. What wisdom does this animal give to you? What do you say to the other animals and plants?
Imagine you are the recognized leader of your country. You have two opportunities to address the entire population of children and adults. You have three minutes. What do you say?
Imagine you are a new star and have planets revolving all around you which you have created. Do they have life on them? If so, what is it like? What does that life want to be?
Imagine you could compose music and/or lyrics for a song that will be shared with many millions of people. What do the words say if there are words to the music? How does it sound?
