It's just telling your story in pictures.
I also love stories.
So I started thinking about how I could combine the two....and the Instagram Novel Project was born!
During the reading process, I'm super big on visualizing while we read. So many of my students struggle with this concept!
The idea of the Instagram project is to get them thinking about what the story looks and fees like as we read.
How it works...
1. I put them into groups of 3 or 4 for the duration of the novel.
3. The group picks one important scene from the chapter to recreate and take a picture of. I let them bring their own devices. It just made it easier. If this is not an option, you can always use the school iPads.
4. They then create hashtags, comments from other characters (inferring), and captions.
That's it!
It's super easy, fun, and engaging!

Happy Teaching,
