Photographs of the Mind Also known as visual imagery, good readers construct mental images as they read a text. By using prior knowledge and background experiences, readers connect the author's writing with a personal picture. Through guided visualization, students learn how to create mental pictures as they read. This reading strategy can be used before, during, and after reading.

How to Use this Strategy Explain: Explain visualization as a comprehension strategy that involves creating mental images of the text as we read. As the text is being read, stop periodically while reading to express the visualizations the drawing or sketching. Demonstrate: Before reading, divide the reading into sections. After reading each section, think aloud about the mental picture that is created. Then draw or sketch the picture and use this time to discuss what was drawn. Be as involved in the reading with the students and share the image you've created in your mind, and talk about which words from the book helped you “imagine” your picture. It could be related to the setting, the characters, or the actions. This is a good example of modeling the kind of picture making you want your students to do. Guide: Read the next section and ask students to work with a partner to create and discuss their mental images. Briefly discuss the results as a class.

How to Use this Strategy Talk to the students about how these pictures help you understand what's happening in the story. Practice: Continue reading another section. Choose a stopping point and share the new image you’ve created. Then ask the students to share with their partner what they see, hear, taste, smell and feel. Ask what vocabulary words helped create the mental image and emotions before having them draw or sketch their image.

How to Use this Strategy Reflect: Once this is a familiar skill, encourage the students to use mental imagery when they are reading by themselves. Have them reflect on what they know about visualization and how they can use Photographs of the Mind when reading content area text.
