Even though this means that you have a lot of path duplicates throughout your font, this method is widely used because it is most compatible. At CFF export, the components are decomposed, and wherever necessary, overlaps are removed. We have covered this in a Diacritics tutorial. Firstly, you can simply pre-build them as composite glyphs. Finish with a real pizza lunch.There are two ways of having accented letters in your font. See if the students can answer questions about the pizzas, such as who has the most pets and the number of people who are right-handed compared to those who are left-handed. Finally, add triangular yellow pineapple pieces to represent a student's age or the number of siblings that student has. Then, ask the students to add olives - small black ovals - to the left or right side of the pizza, depending on if they are left or right-handed. A student with three pets would put three circles on his pizza glyph. For example, you might choose red circle "pepperoni" pieces to symbolize pets. Then, have the students glue the colorful toppings on the pizzas. Use brown construction paper or cardboard circles for the pizzas. Each paper "topping" will stand for something, depending on your legend. Have the students create their own pizzas out of paper by making pizza glyphs. Then, let each student share his family with the class, and analyze the data on a chart or graph. For example, a student who has two brothers and lives with his mother - but not his father - might glue one white square, two green squares and one pink square onto his house. Have the students select the pieces of colored paper to show who lives with them in their houses, and then glue these pieces of colored paper onto the houses or hearts. Next, distribute large hearts or pieces of paper shaped like houses to each student. Place the shapes in several baskets and put a basket at each table or group of desks. Then, cut out several small shapes such as squares or circles in each color. For example, white might stand for the student blue might stand for father pink for mother purple for grandmother green for brother and red for sister. First, create a key for the glyph by choosing a different color for each family member. They also are a good starting point for discussions about how all families are different in some ways but alike in others. Family Glyphsįamily glyphs are an excellent way to get to know your students better. Write the answers on a dry-erase board or large piece of paper. For example, ask the class to count and tell you how many students picked "triangle" as their favorite shape. Then, display the monsters and analyze the data together with the class. Finally, have each student glue white triangular teeth to the monster's mouth - one tooth for every year of age. Boy monsters get an oval mouth and girl monsters get a half-circle. Tell them to add one eye if their shape has no sides or has three sides, or they can use the words "triangle" and "circle." If their shape has four sides, such as a rectangle or square, they are to add two eyes. You can make these in advance or have the students draw the eyes onto the body shapes. Have the students glue the body onto a piece of paper. Cut several different shapes, of different sizes, out of colored construction paper ahead of time. For the body of the monster, ask the students to select their favorite shape in their favorite color. Post a key to the glyphs at back-to-school night so parents can decode them.Ĭreate a "glyph monster" and review the shapes and colors at the same time. Tape the name tags to the desks and encourage the students to look at them to learn more about each other. For example, students with no siblings would not draw a border, students with one sibling would draw one line around their name, and students with two siblings would draw two lines. Finally, ask your students to create a colorful border to show if they have siblings at home. Next, have them create a line of dots at the top or bottom of the name tag to signify their birth date. For example, students born in February might add a heart next to their name.
Then, have them add a symbol for the month they were born. Tell the students to write their name in black if they are the oldest child in the family, red if they are a middle child, blue if they are an only child and green if they are the youngest child. Distribute blank name tags, or fold a piece of heavy paper lengthwise for students to create their own. Instead of making name tags for your students at the beginning of the year, have them create their own name glyphs.
