Imagine if the characters in your story had Instagram. What would they take photos of? Where would the setting/location be? Who would leave a comment on their picture?
This activity allows students to be creative as they put themselves in the lives of their characters. They story begins to come to live as they show how they've visualizing what they're reading. They also naturally begin to make inferences as they determine how the characters would respond to each other.
My kids loved this idea, and it made a wonderful bulletin board display!

This is so cool. My 8th graders talk about Instagram all the time. This is perfect for our novels were reading right now and it will be fabulous to use in the future as well. Thanks, Erin!
