Visual Storytelling met with writing skills to create a story and image that travelled from classroom to classroom and student to student. Each student built upon the work of their classmate and in the end, the image and story had a beginning, middle and end.
1st: Students created an imagined land and wrote the beginning of their story
2nd: Students received imagined land worksheets, with the beginning of the story written out, and created characters to dwell in
the imagined land and the wrote out the middle of the story.
3rd: Students finished the story, added props or details if needed and completed the imagined world image.
Lastly: Students received their imagined world back, with a full story written, and shared stories aloud in class.
Here are some images of collaborative work:
Look for these pieces in person at the Celebration of Learning, in the connections to literacy!
