  2. Cartoonist’s Techniques Labels: Cartoonists often identify or name certain things in their cartoons so that it is apparent what the things represent. Symbolism: Cartoonists may use simple objects to represent larger ideas or concepts. Analogy: Cartoonists may compare a simple image or concept to a more complex situation, in order to help the viewer understand the more complex situation in a different way. Irony: A cartoonist may express an opinion on a topic by highlighting the difference between the way things are and the way the cartoonist thinks they ought to be.

  3. Labels • What things in the cartoon are labeled? Why do you think the cartoonist chose to label those things?

  4. Symbolism • what things in the cartoon are symbols? What do they stand for?
