The document provides instructions for students to create a writer's portfolio to help classmates get to know each other. The portfolio will include pictures, words, and other visuals representing the student's personality and interests. Students are told to include a picture of themselves, decorate one side of the folder, and glue down any loose edges. Certain restrictions on images are outlined. The portfolio will be displayed and students will give a 1-2 minute speech about themselves using their portfolio as a visual aid. Classmates are instructed to listen carefully when others present to help remember names and find shared interests.
