Looking at a picture and describing/inferring what is happening and what clues helped us to figure it out. Then students could use similar clues in their own writing to show rather than tell. For example, what is the character feeling in this picture? How do you know this? What clues could you provide your reader to give them an idea of what your character is feeling?

For example, in fourth grade, students learn about civil rights. It would be fun for students to notice how their ideas/opinions have changed or they have deeper thoughts about a topic after reading a book.Christine Monterohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16366557355576661896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019179112929314257.post-45608568756026358412013-08-14T20:30:13.981-04:002013-08-14T20:30:13.981-04:00Just saw a related/similar strategy called "t...Just saw a related/similar strategy called "table texting". Drawing the analogy to texting was meant to encourage the conversation aspects, as opposed to just adding their own, unrelated comments.
