Recently I read an article about a public librarian who works with middle
school students to develop their visualization skills. I emailed her for
information about the program and am working with a special ed. reading
teacher to develop our own program for high school students.
Has anyone out there done anything like this? Maybe you have incorporated
graphic novels instead of picture books? There was a fascinating article in
School Library Journal years ago about the reasons why many young people
hate to read - one was that many have never developed the necessary
visualization skills and don't "see a movie" when they read. I'd love to be
able to enable them to enjoy reading more! Any help would be appreciated!
