This strategy lets students make things like sketches, drawings, or diagrams to help illustrate ideas. They can be used for different subjects and allow students to use their illustrations to help them connect with the material. They can use words for explanations or labels, or simply draw stuck figures to get the point across.
How you plan to use this strategy in your Practicum, Internship, Student Teaching, or in your own classroom:
I would have the students use drawings to help learn about certain content in P.E. If the content, for example were about the body, I would have them sketch out the parts we are discussing so they get a better understanding. This will let students remember the body because they recreated it and were able to visualize it. If they were learning about a certain sport, I would have them draw out certain things about that sport or have them come up with a designated play if the sport used plays during their game.
