The Power of Pictures: Decoding Illustrations to Deepen Comprehension

with Melanie Rick
for Teachers of Grades PreK-2nd

Students in the early years are often emerging readers who depend on images to provide visual cues that aide in comprehension. This workshop focuses on reading illustrations in fiction picture books before, during and after reading to help students develop the skills of predicting, inferring/drawing conclusions, sequencing and retelling a story.
