Giving students high interest books to read will ignite their drive to read! I want students to be laughing out loud, totally engrossed in their reading. I want them to share scenes with their friends that meant something to them. A scence that shows emotion, a scene that leads to a concept that teaches the students about life. They will take their words and turn them into illustrations. The sharpies and acrylic paint will add depth to their paintings. Lastly, after drafting their scene, they will put the final project on a hard canvas art board. This professional medium will validate their accomplishment of tying literacy, writing, and art together.
