"For years, magazines and newspapers have used photo galleries to tell stories. Photos can build emotion, provide information, encourage a specific action and create great questions. We can have our kids do the same thing by asking them to create Five Photo Stories. It seems like a great way for kids to activate prior knowledge, review information, learn new content or practice summarizing. It's basically an all-purpose graphic organizer! "
