Investigator Eyes See the Big Picture

Students will explore using illustrations to gather key details and summarize the key details into a main idea sentence or sentences. They will compare the details and main idea of the illustration to provided text to determine the relationship between the illustrations and text. They will also learn about the roles of the author and illustrator. Motivated by using magnifying glasses and working with partners, students will use a graphic organizer (web) to document the key details and, in conclusion, the main idea of illustrations.
