• It’s not about the art!
• Rubrics that allow students to demonstrate their comprehension and relaying it through symbols– Look for themes, crucial
story elements, etc.
• Read the text (think at your level!!)
• As a group, illustrate the most important part
• Share the drawing as well as a rationale for the illustration with the class
• Reflect!
