This document discusses photo-based writing, which uses photographs as prompts to inspire writing for students of all ages. Photos can generate ideas, trigger questions, and tell a story to provide a starting point for writers. Research shows that images allow concepts to be explained or expanded upon in ways that text alone cannot. The document provides examples of different types of writing prompts teachers can use based on photos, such as writing stories about characters, locations, or scenes depicted in an image. It also discusses qualities of photos that make for good writing prompts.
ENGLISH GRAMMAR - CONNECTING WORDS: CONJUNCTIVE ADVERBS
English Language learners: This is a 19-slide presentation to help you recognize and use conjunctive adverbs, so you can build stronger sentences. (Created by Rita Zuba Prokopetz / G&R Languages – April, 2013)
Verbs are either in active or passive voice. We use Active Voice most of the time. Active Voice has subject first and object second. In the Active Voice, the object receives the action of the verb. In Passive Voice it is the opposite. In the Passive Voice, the subject receives the action of the verb. In the Active Voice, the subject and verb relationship is straightforward; the subject is the do-er (of the action). In the Passive Voice, the subject of the sentence is not a do-er (of the action). Passive voice is used when the action is the focus, not the subject.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Photo based writing
1. Photo-Based Writing
A picture is worth a thousand words

2. What is Photo-Based Writing?
Photo-Based writing is a teaching strategy that uses
photographs as writing prompts to generate thoughtful
pieces of work from writers of all ages. Pictures are a great
tool to use to inspire writing. All students have the
capacity to write when they are given a starting point.
Photos are a fantastic starting point for writers. Photos
can generate ideas, trigger questions, and tell a story. The
writer finds inspiration from the photo. This strategy
provides students with an opportunity to take a photo and
create their own story.
Powerpoint Templates Page 2
3. Picture This!
Photo-based writing can be achieved in different
ways. The first step is finding a photo. An educator
can instruct students to take their own photos that
will inspire writing or the educator can provide the
students with images. Guidelines should be
established in order to ensure effective writing.
Powerpoint Templates Page 3
4. Research Indicates
Images often allow us to explain, simplify, or expand
concepts in ways that are very difficult to do with text—
or even with spoken words(Levie,1982).
Photos can be used as an effective guided writing tool to
facilitate students' writing process and to improve their
writing proficiency( Lee, 1994).
Powerpoint Templates Page 4
5. “An image contains a story, a narrative, a life of
its own, and what we see is influenced by our
individual perceptions and perspectives at a
given point in time. The photograph spurs
thoughts and stimulates ideas. The photograph
motivates and inspires writing and it is through
writing that students can learn more about a
subject, reflect upon their lives, and express
themselves”.
-Sharon J. Washington, executive director of the
National Writing Project
Powerpoint Templates Page 5
6. What makes a good
photo?
Not any photo will work. The photo should draw
the student into the picture. If there's a ‘’world”
in the photo, then there's something to write
about.
Does the photo make you ask a question?
Do you wonder what happened before/after the
photo?
Does the photo tell a story?
Does the photo make you wonder why the
photographer took the photo?
Is the picture clear?
Do you wonder what's happening outside the

frame?
8. Writing Prompts

that story.
The girl has a secret. She tells it to the dog.

story.
The girl hates fishing. Why is she doing it?
Write that story.
It's the last day of summer. The girl in this
photo is worried about going to a new school.
Write that story.
Powerpoint Templates Page 8
9. Location Prompts
Use photos to prompt students to think specifically
about different locations.
Where is this location?
What time of year is it?
Is something usual or unusual happening?
What are your thoughts on the location?
What character would be comfortable in this
location? Describe them.
What character would be uncomfortable?
Describe them.
Write a conversation between those two
characters.
Powerpoint Templates Page 9
10. Scene Prompts
Write a scene between two characters in the photo before ,
during ,or after the event in the photo takes place.
Write a scene between two characters in the photo during the
event. What is the conversation?
Write a scene between two characters who are watching this
event.
Write the scene that takes place once this event is over. Where
do the characters go next?
Powerpoint Templates Page 10
11. Character Prompts
Students often miss connecting character development as
part of the writing process and yet, characters play such a
huge part in a story. Characters are the backbone of all great
stories .Students can use photos to practice writing character
profiles.
What is the emotional state of the person in the
photograph? Why?
What will they do next?
What details can be created simply by looking at a photo?
Powerpoint Templates Page 11
12. Look at the above photograph. Write out the
conversation between the bird and the dog. What
would they say to each other if they suddenly
could speak English?
