How do children develop
comprehension strategies
like visualization?
When selecting a text
for a visualizing activity,
start with a piece that
contains descriptive
language and strong
verbs and that lends
itself to conjuring vivid
images.
Children develop
these strategies with
explicit instruction
and practice.
How do I help
ELL students with
comprehension
strategies like
visualizing?
Have charts around the
room that model teacher
thinking.
Have a sensory
imaging graphic
organizer available
for students.
