22. “ What’s important is that kids understand the technologies that surround them, especially as our telephone, our television, and our computer race to become one entity. That way, new technology can become the useful tool of the child, instead of the child becoming the useful tool of technology .” --Linda Ellerbee journalist and producer

34. Shared Standards Language Arts Standards require that students predict what a passage is about. Visual literacy contributes to this by guiding children through critical interpretation of accompanying images. We saw these literacies working together when children interpreted the images to predict when Owen and Mzee became friends.

35. Shared Standards Language Arts Standards require that students increase comprehension by re-reading, re-telling, and discussion. Visual literacy contributes to this by providing opportunities for students to create visual representations of concrete and abstract concepts within a story. We saw these literacies working together when students developed collage representations of the abstract concept of “friendship”.

36. Shared Standards Language Arts Standards require that students determine the main message or idea and identify supporting information. Visual literacy contributes to this by organizing, prioritizing, and presenting information graphically. We saw these literacies working together when students developed Venn diagrams comparing and contrasting the characteristics of hippos and tortoises.

37. Shared Standards Language Arts Standards require that students make a plan for writing that includes a central idea and related ideas. Visual literacy contributes to this by teaching children to make thoughtful selections and interpretations of imagery within the context of a particular concept or idea. We saw these literacies working together when students developed a list of indicators that Owen and Mzee are friends.

38. Shared Standards Language Arts Standards require that students carry on conversations with another person, seeking answers and further explanations of the other’s ideas through questioning and answering. Visual literacy contributes to this through collaboration and creative solving in the development of meaningful imagery. We saw these literacies working together when students paired up to develop collage images that expressed the concept of friendship.

39. Shared Standards Language Arts Standards require that students understand that their word choices shape ideas, feelings, and actions. Visual literacy contributes to this through the thoughtful inclusion and arrangement of imagery, color, and placement with the intent to communicate. We saw these literacies working together when students developed descriptive sentences to accompany the photographs they produced.
