Picturing Writing!

Picturing Writing is an art-and-literature-based apprach to writing that integrates visual modes of thinking in every stage of the writing process.  Children learn how to create pictures that tell a story and write words that paint pictures.  This realistic fiction story will center around their Vermont animal that they just completed a report about.  This is what they have done so far.....
Creating the setting with crayon resist technique!

This is the setting of my story!

Then we created a list of words to describe our setting!

Then we wrote the story!
We will publish our stories soon!
