INFORMATIONAL TEXT

Vine

8 ways you can use

Vine to enhance your

reading instruction:

1. Use Vine videos to teach your students about inference. You can

film a few shots of something (like I have done below) and then let the

students discuss what they think is going on in the video, or what

caused the scene. (LINK)

2. Use Vine to make in-class projects more entertaining by having

students create and upload their own videos relating to lesson material.

3. Have students re-create scenes from books they are reading using

Vine to showcase their interpretation of the story.

4. Get students excited about an upcoming unit by using Vine to create

a unit preview.
