Resources for "A Picture Paints 1000 words"
As one of the main focus areas for this task is for students to m ake links between the words and the illustrations in picture books, we are using Rod Clements' "Just another ordinary day" as an introductory book. The pictures in this book do more than help tell the story, they contain a story all of their own!

Teachers are encouraged to first cover the book's covers and read the book to their class WITHOUT showing the pictures, then reveal the covers and share the pictures as they read the book again. Then sit back and see the reactions of the children - and encourage lots of discussion around the power of the illustrations!
