Do the boxes represent their storyline, does the story have a beginning, middle and end, who are the characters, what is the problem in the story?

    Explore the impact of different sequencing by physically manipulating the order of the images to create an alternative telling of the story.

    With older students, you can take the conversation deeper, concentrating on particular images to really extract their ideas and thoughts, allowing them to take more risks when it comes to writing their book.

    Cut out each box and arrange them to tell a story. Explore how a different order can tell a different story.
