My Identity Iceberg – Visible & Invisible Identity
, Not Grade Specific,
My Identity Iceberg uses the waterline as a visual boundary between two kinds of self-description. Learners record outwardly visible parts of identity above the line and less visible experiences, beliefs, roles, or characteristics below it. The open organizer supplies no fixed identity categories, leaving the distinction to the learner while preserving a clear visible-versus-invisible comparison. Both response areas remain open beyond that distinction, so learners determine the identity content they share.
