Mental Images

Kindergarten has been learning about mental images. Good readers create mental images or pictures in their minds as they read. We started by closing our eyes and listening to outside sounds from a CD and picturing what the sounds reminded us of. Then we practiced making mental images with short poems. We noticed our mental images are not all the same because our schema or background knowledge is different.  Here is a Flipagram of our mental images for the poem, Green Giant By Jack Prelutsky. I love all of the details our Kinder learners added to their Giant's!
