Juxtaposition exercise in class

Mr Radzi gave us 2 lists of words as below; firstly without numbered. Then we were asked to think of 3 2-digit numbers (between 01-99). Later, he gave us the same lists but this time they are numbered as followed:

1. Flower 0. Head
2. Lightning 1. Rain
3. Ice 2. Wood
4. Light 3. Tree
5. Fire 4. Spider
6. Duck 5. Root
7. Dog 6. Mountain
8. Oil 7. Wind
9. Leave 8. Rock
0. Fly 9. Water

This is how it works... For example, if I choose the number 20, then 2 is for the word in the 1st list which is Lightning and 0 is for the word in the 2nd list which is Head;and now when combined, that makes Lightning Head.

The 3 numbers that I chose was 05, 19 and 89. When the words were combined according from each list to the chosen numbers, they make Fly Root, Flower Water and Oil Water.


Part 1
The first exercise was to make sense of the words by making a sentence for each one. My sentences are as follow;

1. Fly Root - There is a fly resting on the mangrove root.
2. Flower Water - The pretty flower is thrown into the water.
3. Oil Water - Annie spills some oil on the water.

After that we have to illustrate our sentences.




Part 2
The second exercise was to combine the 2 words and make it into one. We were asked to illustrate the 3 new words to make them meaningful; Flyroot, Flowerwater, Oilwater... which was no doubt kind of tough and weird but interesting....
