Re: [STW2Chat] [StwChat] Chapter 9-Visualizing and Inferring

My daughter keeps sending me things she finds through
StumbleUpon.  Recently  she has sent pictures of
animals and of "lessons in logic" pictures.  Both sets
of pictures had ones that I thought ideal to teach
inference and prediction.  I found about 10 pictures
total where the students would have to infer what
happened prior to the photo being taken.  They can
predict what will happen in the future.  I am planning
on modeling with one of the pictures (the one I'm
thinking of using has a snail on top of a frog!) and
then helping them work through the next one.  I am
excited about using pictures to get the idea across
before we tackle it in reading.

I'm wondering if anyone else has done something like
this--any feedback?  Thanks, Freida 3rd/GA
