I somehow couldn’t wrap my mind around the elimination process described above so I just tried something different and wanted to share
I picked three images that I personally liked the best and hung them in the art gallery in our room (I took down all the class created OWI after break so we started back with a clean slate). We did look and discuss of all three, just looking and talking about what could be seen in the image for a few minutes. Then I took one off the wall and did a more in depth discussion of the character using the biographical information on the back of the page. The energy in the room was excellent, I would talk and ask questions and look discretely to the artist of the image for confirmation that I was correctly interpreting. In some classes the kid who did the drawing didn’t want the class to know if was them, in others they were outwardly boastful. Then we would take a brain break and stretch out, turn and talk in summary in English with a partner etc. Then I took a second image down and did another round of talking and asking questions. The third image didn’t get a lot of attention, but tomorrow it will. The write and discuss we wrapped up with was a comparison of the two characters, which gets the box ticked for higher order thinking according to my admin. They were making some obvious comparisons and some I didn’t even think of, all recycling language we had spent the bulk of class time using. It was great!
My plan for tomorrow is to review those two characters briefly and then talk in depth about the third character. Maybe a quiz or another round of write and discuss. Tomorrow we’ll finish by voting on which character we should tell a story about on Thursday. I can see really great story lines for some of the characters, simple but effective things like the talkative popcorn box that appeases frustrated movie watchers by letting them eat popcorn getting in a fight during a movie with his arch rival nachos. In some classes I see the two characters we talked about today being co-stars in a story. I am excited by all the possibilities!!
Just finished my last class of the day and because of some clerical things I had to take care of we only had time to look at one image. It was a pencil that can change the color of its writing and can write on it’s own. With only one image I couldn’t do the comparison write and discuss but I am working on getting a higher rating on “Questioning and Discussion Techniques” so tried to find another way to evoke higher order thinking. I asked “What type of person wants a pencil that can write on it’s own?” and the answers were beautiful – a handicapped person, a struggling student, a lazy person, a wizard who loves magical things. Doesn’t that just open up so many different story opportunities?? I love these individually created characters.
