Connecting
activity
7
● For today’s connecting
activity we are asking
you to create your
own bookmark
inspired by your
favourite book!
● You can incorporate
your name through
choosing a book that
begins with the first
letter of your name.
● Alternatively, you
could incorporate a
drawing of an item
that begins with the
first letter of your
name.
8. Collage
This activity was originally part of our Black
History Month workshop. Collaging occured as
part of a reflection on housing inequality in the UK
and its disproportionate impact on Black
communities. After engaging in a VR session
watching a Grenfell Tower documentary and
reading some academic texts on the social
impacts of housing insecurity, students collaged
their reflections.
For today we will be focusing on creating collages
based on the wider theme of ‘Home’.
● What does home mean to you?
● What aspects of home are most important to
you?
● How do you relate home and belonging to
your identity?
8
9. Blackout poetry
For our Reclaim The Night workshop, we
used Blackout poetry during our collaging
activity to deconstruct misogynistic texts.
● Today, marker pens will be used so that
you can also create your own Blackout
poems to deconstruct texts.

10. Fidget toy making
Taking inspiration from an activity from our
Disability History Month workshop we
will be creating fidget toys, using a variety
of materials.
● Use craft items such as foam, card
and googly eyes to create your own
poppet style fidget toys.
● We also have parts created on our
3D printers for you to assemble into a
spinner style fidget toy.
