Drawing Pictures for Reading Comprehension– A Visualisation Strategy

Reading comprehension can be difficult for teachers and students, but it doesn’t have to be. By breaking down the process into smaller steps, you can help your students learn how to comprehend any text. One way to do this is by drawing pictures for comprehension.

Our Read and Draw Comprehension Worksheets teach young students to comprehend text by having them draw pictures of the story. With a clear focus on comprehension, these worksheets are perfect for use in reading groups and as homework activities. Each of the six worksheets includes a text, picture ideas and space for readers to include a story drawing. 

Through this activity, students will demonstrate knowledge with the following skills:

  • Reading comprehension
  • Identifying essential details in a text.
  • Retelling a story using pictures or words.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

In addition to individual student work time, use this activity to enhance learning through guided reading groups, whole class lessons, or remote learning assignments. 

Suppose you have a mixture of above and below-level learners and ELL/ESL students. In that case, we have a few suggestions for keeping students on track with these concepts: 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

Have students work in pairs or small groups to read the text and complete the activities.

Provide read-aloud accommodations as needed.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

Encourage students to read other texts and draw pictures to continue blending art and reading comprehension.
