Have your students turn and talk to describe the scene they visualised.
Offer small pieces of paper on which students can draw, label and caption the scene.
Glue into the Big Book on the adjacent matching page.
Extend: Have students work on another scene, or add illustrations to student version copies you've added to your classroom library
Enable: provide more opportunity for oral rehearsal of visualised scenes, and chart some key words with the students to support labelling and captioning.
Continue reading, visualising and illustrating over the next few lessons.
