"Caption It!" is a standards-based activity that features 30 images for students to write captions. Directions are included for both a creative writing exercise and an expository (journalism) writing exercise.
Caption writing is a shorter writing exercise that still practices proper conventions of grammar, usage, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling in standard English. Start with these shorter exercises before moving to larger writing pieces such as formal essays. In addition, fostering creativity makes the process of writing more enjoyable for students.
Bundle includes handouts, the images, and a Powerpoint presentation with the photo prompt images embedded.
The activity aligns with the Common Core Standards for grades 6-12 in Writing, which are listed in the document.
The original (volume 1) caption writing activity can be found here: Caption It! Caption Writing Creative & Expository Exercises
Coming soon: Volume 3 and Caption It! for Elementary

My high school students love these pictures, and it's one of the only times they don't complain about writing! Definitely worth the money.

These are great. I did something similar with famous paintings. A picture is worth a 1000 words.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I've been teaching at my current public high school for twelve years, and have a total of 16 years experience. Most of my experience is teaching high school English and journalism classes; however, for several years I taught an art history class. I teach all levels--from honors students to special education students; therefore, I'm constantly modifying my assignments to fit my students' needs.
