A tool for writing in the classroom Here we present a simple tool to read and write in the classroom. It is the combination of image reading and rewriting the message conveyed by the image.
This exercise allows students to try a way to read images sometimes communicate more than words. Also this type of activity encourages the participant to exercise and development of narrative, description and key sequences of the writing process also involves the development of inferential processes associated with reading.
Sometimes the execution of this exercise the participant generated the initiative to fill and complete communications from the image supported by new ideas or suggestions on assumptions that just suggests cartoon or hidden. Today
intend to work with an image of artist or cartoonist Quino Argentina. We will list the instructions for implementing the exercise. Exercise
Narrate: art and part. Instructions: 1. Divide into pairs by a dynamic group.
2. Already established couples, they provide a caricature model of Quino (Joaquín Salvador Lavado) to be read or interpreted.
3. Later they were shown and read a narrative model that is born from the cariactura they have in their hands.
4. It presents, explains and clarifies the narrative model and its relation to the original cartoon. It talks about the conventions of writing.
5. They were then given to each couple a new cartoon. And they ask each partner to build the narrative or story that reported the new cartoons that they have provided.
6. Finished writing exercise, read and reviewed the written narratives that have been produced for each pair of students. It is important that each story is accompanied by the image that originated, as this will serve to contrast this with the image and what was said by the word.
7. You can exchange stories resulting from the different partners in order to comment and appreciate the accomplishments of each pair of students.
Here we present the cartoon
And here the narrative model that emerged from the previous comic strip: Newlyweds
Juan, a hombresote happy, strong and honest is Leticia married, a girl timid, quiet, shy and fragile. They were happy on their wedding day, posed for the camera as is customary in such cases. Were uneven, and he, tall, ruddy, showed a probity in their dealings and talent, not far perhaps a willful attitude. Leticia, on the other hand, seemed, however, somewhat blurred, introverted and insecure.
However, when crossing the threshold of the door of room 210 of the hotel, where they would spend their first night of marriage, Leticia got carried away with confidence, according to custom, in the arms of her lover, the preceding a button that blindly transferred the luggage.
After closing the door no one knew what happened to the newlyweds. Maybe they were busy with matters that concern us not reveal here, but the truth is that every night the door was closed by the signal insurmountable used for "newlyweds. Do Not Disturb. "
The next day, late morning, the door was still in his stubborn position, and signal, imperturbable.
assume that what happened then was that the woman called the front desk of the inn to be sent to the buttons and take care of the suitcases. When he turned to see the couple, to leave the room, Leticia was confident, strong, defined, content, solid as an oak. Instead, John, her husband, looked sickly, weak, timid, shy, fragile, insecure, introverted ...
This time the two buttons were loaded monotonically blind packages and packages of the couple: one, with luggage, and the other with John, whom he could not stand up as blurred, weak and was crestfallen.
assume that the couple exchanged more than just fluids ...
