 Analyzing an Image
When you analyze something you break the subject down into various parts and you explain them. The goal is to come to a deeper understanding of the subject.  Practice your analyzing skills with the image from The New Yorker magazine I have linked below.  Use the cognitive strategies and the responses of your peers to come to try to understand what it means. 
1) Study the image at the following link:http://archives.newyorker.com/?i=2009-09-07
2) Write a response to the image.  You may use the following cognitive strategies to respond:

    I think that the picture in the new yorker magazine means that elderly people are having a hard time adapt to the modern world.For example you see allot of old people having a hard time working with the computers

    I think that the image shown is trying to say that you need to look closer at things to understand them better.

    I think the image represents what people of higher class (rich people)do for recreation (smoking).
