Objective

Students will make several inferences based on the details in this painting.

Download a large version of the painting here. It's important not to reveal the title though!

Steps

  1. First, we just notice details in the painting.
  2. Then, students will make three inferences - one must be about what this man's job is.
  3. Finally, I reveal the painting's title and challenge students to make the ultimate inference: write the poem that this man is writing!

The registration window closes on May 31st, 2024
