Metacogitive Reading Strategies: Part 3 Visualization What Good Readers Do to Build Meaning From Text

Crafting Sensory and Emotional Images! Good readers create sensory images in their minds as they read. They even think BEYOND the sensory information that’s directly stated to craft their own detailed pictures to include… –Visual images –Auditory images –Tactile images –Taste images –Smell images –EMOTIONAL connections rooted in schema

How does visualization help our comprehension? 1.Great writers don’t tell us. They show us. We can then make discoveries (inferences) based on the images they craft. It’s more fun and memorable to read that way! Elizabeth was sad. Elizabeth lost all of the rosy color in her full, illuminated cheeks and became sallow and jaundiced. The space below her eyes became purple and lightless with sharp, unfriendly sunken cheeks that hung on her face like a heavy burden. Most days she did not move from her stale bed where she lay lifelessly in a motionless heap. As hours passed, she stared at a damp, dark water spot in the ceiling that she thought resembled an old man.

How does visualization help our comprehension? We can do this in our own writing! We have to start noticing it in the writing of others first to see how to do it well! What are some strategies we know for helping our readers to visualize? –Adding “flair” (using colorful adjectives and adverbs) –Using active verbs (avoiding lazy “to be” verbs)

How does visualization help our comprehension? 2. When we craft images, we can immerse ourselves in our reading to engage in the text more deeply and make reading memorable.

How does visualization help our comprehension? 3. We can live the text! I felt like I knew them! I cried! I was furious! I laughed! What a text that you remember living?

Let’s Practice! How do I craft visual and emotional images? “This makes me see…” “This makes me hear…” “This makes me taste…” “This makes me smell…” “This makes me feel (tactile)…” “This makes me feel (emotional)…” “The author used ____________ imagery here…”

Why Does it Matter? Crafting visual and emotional images facilitates: –More powerful, more insightful, more skilled writing. (Show, don’t tell!) –Retention of text. (We remember what we live so much better than what we read.) –The ability to live the text! SO much more enjoyable! Becoming ROCK STAR READERS!
