Brainwriter (3)
So, now that you have seen how to set up “Brainwriter”, see examples below of how it can be used in the curriculum…
USING BRAIN-WRITER WITH THE CURRICULUM
- The Brain-Writer may use more than one Visual Image at a time, if need be.
- Once you believe they can understand and apply the Brain-Writer rules, you can ask the students to make Brain-Writer stories about various curriculum topics.
- Be clear about what you expect to be represented in the curriculum Brain-Writers. For example: “Illustrate the 4 steps in the water cycle” is better than “show me the water cycle”.
- Make sure to have the students rotate so that everyone has the opportunity to be the Brain-Writer.
Brain-Writer is also very effective for having students understand the steps in a process, helping them to visualize a formula, or generate ideas for creative writing!
