First grade students have spent the last several class sessions exploring narrative art- art that tells a story. In our latest project, students chose a painting and used it as the middle of a story. They had to closely study the painting and look for clues to determine what was happening. They needed to make inferences about what could have happened before the painting, and then make predictions to decide what happened next! We did this through drawing and writing. Developing these skills will help students analyze written texts. "First, the man didn't want his food because he was full. Next, he gave it to the dog. Last, the dog ate it all up." "First, she tripped over a rock. Then she got sick. Next, she had to sit in the chair. Last, she felt better after her nap." "First, she gets the milk. Next, she gives the milk to the cat. Last, then the cat drinks." "First, they are back from the Big E. (a movie theater) Next, they are home. Last, they go to bed." "First, she had a fight! Next, she went to the principal's office. Last, she got a spanking with a book." "First, the boy is with his dad the police. Next, they are eating lunch. Last, they are going home. We are eating." "First, he went fishing with his dog and he built a raft. Next, he let his dog ride it. Last, they went back home." "First, the family is eating watermelon.
Next, the boy is playing baseball. Last, it is night time."
