Today's Warm-Up Question: Write a taxonomy of your own!
Today's Soundtrack: "Liztomania" by Phoenix
We have chosen this song today because its title, "Liztomania," can also serve as a pun on the phrase "List-o-mania." Mania is a noun meaning "something that people get really excited about," and taxonomies are all about breaking things down into lists.
Today's Warm-Up Question: Write a taxonomy of your own!
In our last class, we discussed four different taxonomies. We separated movies by genre, we divided musicians by band, and we identified the different social circles right here at Crossland.
What other subjects can we create a taxonomy for?
Pick a topic of your choice and break it down into two or more categories. Then provide at least two examples that might fit into each category you’ve created.
SAMPLE TOPICS MIGHT INCLUDE:
Vacation Destinations
Breakfast Foods
Types of TV Shows
Clothing Brands
Sports
Types of Music
Video Games
After-School Clubs and Groups
