Picture This! Building Photo-Based Writing Skills

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

High schoolers analyze photographs as a development activity for their literacy skills. They will review the 6 Q's feature for analyzing photographs and analyze a variety of photographs and then write comments in the space around the photo. Next, they will complete four response activities for their group photos and also complete discussion and reading comprehension questions. Very creative and engaging!
