This is a remix of the original resource provided by Elizabeth Huggin. In this activity, students will complete four tasks that will help them identify, analyze, and describe the role of imagery in poems linked by theme.

Differentiation options are provided within the activity as well.

Students analyze one of Dorothea Lange's photographs and make connections to its historical context by creating a one-page written and visual response.
