=** Developing a Photo-Lit Collage **= == A collage is a collection of pictures which represents the creator's mental images on a theme or topic. In this activity, you will create a collage to depict the way you imagine, or visualize, scenes from // To Kill a Mockingbird //. Using the following Web sites, you will select photos from federal archives as the pictures for your Powerpoint collage. Choose Depression-era photos from the state of Alabama, the setting of // To Kill a Mockingbird //, then print out those which seem to illustrate parts of the novel to you. For each photo that you choose you will need to find a corresponding quote from the novel. ==

“Maycomb’s Ewells lived behind the town garbage dump in what once was a Negro Cabin. The Cabin’s plank walls were supplemented with sheets of corrugated iron, it’s roof shingled with tin cans hammered flat, so only it’s general shape suggested its original design: square, with four tiny rooms opening into a shotgun hall, the cabin rested uneasily on four lumps of limestone. Its windows were merely open spaces in the walls, which in the summertime were covered with greasy strips of cheesecloth to keep out the varmints that feasted on Maycomb’s refuse.” --Page 170
