Question: How organize
the reading of wordless picture books for immigrants?
. Use a small-group format similar to
literature circles.
. Try having groups focus on several
books by the same author and then compare various authors’ styles.
. Organize students into linguistically
homogeneous groups whenever possible….
. Use buddy reading, pairing students to
talk. The two students can take turns interpreting and commenting on the images
found on alternating pages.
. Keep the conversation open…. .What do
you think about this page? What do you notice here? What is happening here? Why
do think so? What else would you like to say?
.
Ask how they think characters might be thinking and feeling.
. Ask students to share their
predictions.
.Do not rush the discussion of the
book….
. Create annotated pages….
