Thing 7c
I am always looking for ways to increase reading comprehension with my sixth grade students, and in the past, I have been surprised that students do not visualize. In one of my readings, I came across a “Sketch to Stretch” reading comprehension activity that might interest my students. Students are asked to read a passage then make a sketch of how they visualize that passage. Other students are asked to comment on a students sketch, then the student that made the sketch can comment on his sketch.
