Encourage your student to solve compare story problems by drawing their own or using the comparison bar template.

Writing

Watch & Learn: Mrs. Neidigh uses bold colors, detailed drawings, and labels to illustrate her story.
Practice: Illustrate each page of your story and give it a rating.

Thumbs up: My illustrations match the words. I used bold colors, lots of detail, and added labels to my illustrations.

Thumbs sideways: My pictures make sense, but they don't have a lot of detail or color. I only have 1-2 labels.

Thumbs down: My illustrations are not my best work. They are sloppy and scribbled. I didn't add any labels, either.
