*I recently came across a link with 25 photographs that came from the National Geographic Archives.
*You can find the other 24 photographs at the following link…
*As I scrolled through the images I was fascinated by all of them. This one in particular caught my attention.
*It stood out as an image that my students would enjoy writing about.
*Each Wednesday we write in our writer's notebooks about a particular image.
*They can record their thoughts, reactions, connections, likes/dislikes, reminders, noticings, or anything else they would like.
*Some of the writers choose to write a fiction story based on the picture.
*We write between five and ten minutes and then do a quick share at the end.
*The photos always lead to lots of conversation and the sharing of ideas. I try to get them to write first and then we can share what we wrote and what we were thinking.
*The writers are really enjoying writing and talking about these photographs.
