Group 3's presentation. The main ideas are,
 1. Verbo-centric beliefs about the key elements within a story such as setting, mood, character, problem, solution, and ending, are not just solely established through the language of words. 


2. Art needs to be more than a hook, an art based approach to writing should give a student concrete, hands on tools, for developing and expressing ideas.

3. Pictures serve as a universal language no matter what language one speaks.

4. The language of pictures provides a concrete and dynamic core language for thinking and developing ideas before any writing takes place. It nourishes the mind and enriches the thinking.


Their presentation was very good. It was a good example of how you have to adapt to time just as we will have to do in the classroom. They also had a great way of showing us how pictures can help make a story. I believe it is easier to make a story from a picture rather than a picture from a story. Their discussion questions helped me realize that by making me think back to how it worked while I was in school. I will be including art and pictures into my future students learning
