How does it work?

Completing the Elements of Fiction Doodle Vocabulary is simple and meaningful!

1. Students fill in the definitions for each of the words (either with guided notes or by writing the entire definition).
2. Then, they review the fun doodle task for each new word.
3. Finally, students create doodle and fulfill the doodle tasks to showcase their learning and connect more deeply with the vocabulary.

Why doodle?

• When students doodle or create sketches of something, they’re activating different parts of their brains.
• This helps students to make connections.
• Simple sketches or doodles are also powerful mnemonic devices, so students will also be able to remember the words and their meanings longer.
• Plus…doodling in class makes learning instantly more fun and engaging!
