  1. Great selection of images for prompts. So varied. But I especially like the shipwreck. What’s the story behind that?

  2. This is such a fun assignment, i would’ve loved it in late elementary school. It could be a fictional short story practice that can be just one day or drawn out over periods of time!

  3. This is a great lesson with intriguing pictures. I like the second question, students will be pulled in and engaged in this possible quick write activity.
